College Street is an iconic traffic free cobbled lane with a prime setting in central St Andrews.

It is opposite St Salvator’s Chapel in North Street with St Salvator’s Quadrangle, where many University functions take place, and the University Library adjacent. The University of St Andrews is one of the oldest in Britain (founded in 1413) and many other University buildings are arranged to either side.

All the shops, pubs and restaurants in North Street, South Street and Market Street are close at hand. Market Street is immediately to the south where the historic Whyte Melville Memorial Fountain has recently returned to operation following a restoration project funded by the St Andrews Pilgrim Foundation.

The property is 200 yards from The Scores which is the cliff top street leading to the R&A Clubhouse and West Sands Beach. St Andrews is renowned worldwide as the Home of Golf. There are now eight golf courses under the management of the St Andrews Links Trust. The Old Course is arguably the most famous golf course in the world and next plays host to the Open Championship in 2027.

The historic town has a good range of shops, hotels, restaurants, recreational and cultural facilities which include The Byre Theatre. Beyond St Andrews is the East Neuk of Fife, with a spectacular coastline which boasts fishing villages built around picturesque harbours and sandy unspoilt beaches.
