About this property

  • Fairways is an immaculately presented, semi-detached home with three levels of accommodation situated in a superb setting overlooking the 4th fairway of Elie golf course. The enviable position in which the house sits is one of Earlsferry's most desirable roads, largely thanks to its beautiful and panoramic outlooks. The property dates back to the 1920s, however the current owners have undertaken an impressive renovation project to re-model and fully modernise the living space.

    A gated path from Links Road leads to the front door of Fairways. The ground floor accommodation has been extensively redesigned to create a spacious and bright open plan kitchen / dining room. It is approached by glass double doors from the entrance hall and has a generous dining area with patio doors leading out into the south-facing garden. Integrated kitchen appliances include an LG fridge freezer, CDA electric oven and grill, CDA microwave, gas hob and Zanussi dishwasher. There is also an integrated music system throughout the house with ceiling mounted speakers in most rooms. Beyond the kitchen is a utility room, with plumbing for appliances and back door to the garden. To the front of the house is the sitting room which has a natural stone fireplace and bay window overlooking the golf course. There is also a WC on this level.

    The first floor has a family room, providing some of the best views from the house from its large bay window, two further windows and fitted window seats. The views stetch over the golf course, towards the Fife coastline to the west of the village. This naturally bright room also has a gas feature fireplace, a surround sound cinema system with integrated ceiling speakers and a glass door flanked by windows onto the landing. Also on the first floor is a double bedroom and shower room. The staircase continues up to the second floor where a skylight sits over the landing. There are three further bedrooms, one of which has an en suite bathroom and a dormer window looking out over the Earlsferry rooftops and across the Firth of Forth and another has views over the golf course.

    The rear garden is fully enclosed by wooden fencing and has been paved for easy maintenance. There are stocked borders and a garden shed. It is a lovely, sheltered area for barbecues and outdoor entertaining, with a double door leading directly out from the kitchen / dining room. There is a paved patio overlooking the golf course to the front of the house which is a super seating area for watching the sun set. A path from Links Road leads to a vennel (passageway) which is mutually owned with the adjacent property and provides access into the rear gardens of both properties.
