The Laigh House, 6a South Street, forms the ground floor and a portion of the first floor of a substantial and traditional coastal home situated in the heart of Elie on the desirable South Street, with spectacular and unobstructed views overlooking the beach. The property offers an exciting opportunity to upgrade the accommodation to provide modern living space, subject to the necessary consents.

The bedroom / study sits behind the conservatory, with windows between the two to provide ample natural light, these have vertical blinds to provide privacy. An en suite bathroom sits off the bedroom / study.
The principal bedroom sits on the first floor, and is approached by a staircase from the entrance hall. It has views over the beach, as well as over South Street to the rear. It has an en suite bathroom, also with beach views, and a separate dressing room. A further bedroom sits on the ground floor off the rear corridor and has a wash hand basin. From the entrance hall, stairs lead down to the utility room, which is plumbed for laundry appliances; a shower room, and a separate WC.
The garage adjoins the property, and is accessed by a garage door on South Street, as well as a door which leads out into the garden beyond.
