About this listing

The Hazelton is an exceptional eight-bedroom Victorian townhouse offering a rare combination of coastal living, substantial accommodation and proven rental income in the heart of Crail. The house represents a particularly compelling lifestyle and investment opportunity, currently generating approximately £75,000 per annum in rental income, despite being reserved for the owners' personal use for around four months of the year. With the property rented on a relatively passive basis, there is considerable potential for a new owner to increase rental availability and further enhance returns. The property's proximity to St Andrews also presents exceptional letting opportunities during major golfing events, with The Open Championship at St Andrews offering the potential to generate an additional £25,000 during championship week, over and above the property's established annual rental income. Arranged over three floors, the property retains a wealth of original Victorian features, including high ceilings, ornate cornicing, feature fireplaces and large sash windows that fill the rooms with natural light. The accommodation is both generous and versatile, with beautifully proportioned rooms that effortlessly combine period elegance with the comforts of modern family living. The principal reception rooms are particularly appealing. The elegant lounge features a striking fireplace, bespoke shelving and large sash windows overlooking the garden, creating a wonderful space for relaxing or entertaining. Across the hall, the formal dining room is equally inviting, with a beautiful bay window and feature fireplace providing a charming setting for family gatherings and special occasions. At the heart of the home is a large and characterful dining kitchen, thoughtfully designed for everyday living and informal entertaining. Featuring an extensive range of cabinetry, generous work surfaces and a range-style cooker, the kitchen combines excellent functionality with traditional charm. A large picture window overlooks the courtyard garden, bringing natural light into the space. An adjoining utility room provides additional storage and workspace, with access to further ancillary rooms and storage areas. The bedroom accommodation is extensive, comprising eight well-proportioned bedrooms, six of which benefit from en-suite facilities, while the remaining two share a family bathroom. This flexible arrangement is ideal for larger families, visiting guests or those considering hospitality use. Several of the upper-floor rooms enjoy delightful views across Crail's historic rooftops towards the Firth of Forth, providing a wonderful reminder of the property's coastal setting. Outside, The Hazelton benefits from a delightful enclosed garden, offering a private and sheltered retreat just moments from the heart of the village. A grassed lane at the end of the garden provides convenient pedestrian access to Beech Walk. The property also benefits from a garage and private parking, both particularly desirable features in this popular coastal village. With its combination of Victorian character, substantial accommodation, outdoor space and enviable location, The Hazelton offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the very best of village and coastal living in the East Neuk of Fife.
