The Croft was built to a design by the St Andrews architects Muir Walker and Pride and completed in 2016. The house is deceptively large, extending to over 3,600 ft2. It is of modern, harled block construction under a pitched slate roof. The windows are double glazed throughout.

Special features include the central hall which is full height to the eaves. Three Velux windows and glass panels to the stairway maximise the natural light. The main room is a magnificent room which comprises a dining room / sitting room which are open plan to the kitchen and have a sunroom off.

The house has a thoroughly practical layout and relates well to its outside space. The garage is accessed through the utility room behind the kitchen. There is a broad terrace along the front of the house and a separate, sheltered outside sitting area to the side.

Accommodation
The house is approached by a gravel drive which leads up around the side of the house to a gravel sweep beside the garages at the front door. The entrance hall has deep cupboards either side, one with a hanging rail.

The central hall is full height to the eaves with three Velux windows. The stairway has glass panels and houses an under stairs cupboard and shelved drinks cupboard. There is a separate WC.

An L shaped corridor leads to two ground floor bedrooms, both with fully tiled en suite shower rooms. One bedroom has a full wall of wardrobes. The other has a dressing room with hanging rails and open shelves.

At the end of the hall is a south facing study.

The main reception room has a raised fireplace with a solid fuel stove in the sitting area. The dining room has glazed, double doors to the sunroom which opens into the garden. The kitchen is separated by display cupboards and the units include a 1½ sink, Hotpoint dishwasher, AEG five ring halogen hob, AEG double wall oven and integrated fridge.

To the rear of the kitchen is a utility room with a back door to a covered loggia and a door to the garage. Fitted cupboards with Bosch washing machine, Samsung dryer and Grant oil fired central heating boiler. The double garage has two electric roller doors and a concrete floor. There is a recessed garden store area with fitted shelves.

To the east side is a further, gravel parking area. Behind this is a wooden summerhouse with a log store adjoining. Behind this is an area of woodland.

To the west and south of the house are lawns interspersed with trees. There is a high fir hedge separating the property from the neighbour to the west.
