Three modern houses in row of five to be built by award-winning Eastacre
Balfour Place is the next project for Eastacre, the award-winning St Andrews developer. They are renowned for building high quality modern houses which complement the surrounding, historic built landscape.
The five houses will be detached and arranged in a row. There will be a parking space and car port to the front with a south facing balcony and terrace to the rear. The interiors will be contemporary with an open plan living area on the upper floor and bedrooms on the ground floor.

I think that these houses are exceptional, enjoying a wonderfully private setting a stone's throw from the East Sands beach as well as the centre of town.
