8 Balone Steading is an impressive four‑bedroom villa forming part of an exclusive steading development on the edge of St Andrews. The property offers generous, beautifully balanced accommodation with a warm and welcoming feel, combining character features with modern comforts.

The entrance hall provides an inviting introduction to the home, with access to the main living areas, a useful WC and a hall storage cupboard. The lounge is an elegant and spacious room, centred around a feature fireplace and filled with natural light from a bay with French doors opening directly to the garden. Sliding doors connect the lounge to a bright family room, allowing either open‑plan flow or separation as required. The family room enjoys lovely outlooks over the surrounding greenery, making it an ideal everyday living space.

The dining kitchen has a charming country aesthetic, fitted with timber units, ample worktop space and room for a dining table. From here, a door leads into the utility room, which offers excellent additional storage including a walk‑in cupboard and plumbing for laundry appliances. The utility provides direct access to a enclosed patio, which in turn leads to the integral garage, a convenient layout for day‑to‑day living.

Upstairs, the bedroom one is generously proportioned, featuring built‑in wardrobes and a modern en‑suite shower room. This room also benefits from views towards St Andrews. Three further double bedrooms all offer built‑in storage, and the family bathroom provides a four‑piece suite with bath and separate shower.

Externally, the property enjoys a peaceful setting with a monoblock driveway leading to the integral garage. The front garden features well‑established shrubs, lawn and a patio seating area, with an attractive backdrop of woodland and open green space. Gas central heating and double glazing complete the specification.
