DESCRIPTION Century House is a Category C Listed Arts & Crafts house which dates from 1908. The house has a wealth of traditional features such as an imposing tower overlooking the gardens and crow stepped gables which are reminiscent of Scots Renaissance architecture.

The house has been extended and considerably upgraded by the present owners. The new living/kitchen/dining wing which opens onto an expansive, south facing decked terrace with outdoor kitchen adds a real wow factor. This is complemented by an impressive reception hall and a magnificent double drawing room. There is a study, WCs and useful storerooms and utility rooms behind.

The principal bedrooms are on the first floor. The master bedroom has a stunning, en suite bathroom below the tower and two dressing rooms. The three further bedrooms on this floor all have their own bath or shower rooms.

There are three further bedrooms on the second floor, two bathrooms (one en suite), a gym and a large attic store with water tanks and hot water cylinders. A charming spiral staircase beside the turret bedroom leads up to a tower with battlements above, from where there are stunning views over St Andrews.

DIRECTIONS Travelling west on Hepburn Gardens (B939) take the left fork at the mini-roundabout to remain on Hepburn Gardens. The drive to Century House is on the left hand side and passes up the side of 100a Hepburn Gardens.

SITUATION Century House has a private setting in the historic town of St Andrews. It is set immediately above the Lade Braes with a gate from the garden giving access to the footpath which connects the countryside to the centre of town.

St Andrews is renowned worldwide as the ‘Home of Golf’. The Old Course is a regular host to the Open Championship. There are now six further golf courses run by the St Andrews Links Trust, in addition to the many other golf courses in the area including the Duke’s Course, two courses at Fairmount, St Andrews Bay and Kingsbarns.

St Andrews has a good selection of shops, hotels and restaurants. The town is well known for its university which was Scotland’s first, and is the third oldest in the English-speaking world, founded in 1413. There is state schooling at Madras College and private schooling at St Leonards, while The High School of Dundee is within easy reach.
