Situation
The Barn stands out as a spectacular detached modern home built in 2015 as part of the exclusive Russell Main Steading development. Peacefully situated in the picturesque Fife countryside, the property offers residents a tranquil and enviable setting. Conveniently located, it is just outside Cupar Muir, a short distance south-west of the highly desirable market town of Cupar which provides a wealth of retail, dining, and leisure amenities as well as schooling. The ancient university town of St Andrews globally renowned as ‘The Home of Golf’ is a mere twenty-minute drive to the east. For an even greater choice of cultural and visitor attractions, vibrant Dundee, home to the V&A and the revitalized waterfront with the famous RRS Discovery is close by. Perth is within comfortable driving distance, as is Edinburgh, approximately an hour to the south. The characterful fishing villages and beautiful beaches that make up this scenic part of Scotland including Anstruther, St Monans, Crail, Elie, and Pittenweem are all easily accessible as are the Lomond Hills.
The area boasts various visitor attractions including National Trust for Scotland properties such as Hill of Tarvit House, Kellie Castle, and Falkland Palace. Alongside local schooling in Cupar, there are private options available at St Leonards in St Andrews and at The High School of Dundee. The property is conveniently situated near the local bus route, and there are train stations in Leuchars, Springfield, Cupar, Ladybank, and Markinch, with Edinburgh International Airport forty-five minutes away by car. Domestic flights are available from Dundee.
General Description
Surrounded by scenic open countryside and approached by an enclosed south-facing garden and deck bordered by the private parking area, the front door of this spectacular contemporary home opens into a welcoming entrance vestibule.
