It’s perfect for entertaining, al fresco dining or simply relaxing while taking in the coastal views.

In addition, the property comes with a single garage and store.

This was once a fishermen’s hut for the hanging of nets, and may offer the potential for conversion to a beachfront summerhouse, subject to the necessary consents.

There are plenty of local amenities nearby, most notably the Fife Coastal Path and Elie’s famous Ship Inn pub just four doors away.

Elie is in easy reach of St Andrews, and Dundee as well as road and rail links to Edinburgh and beyond.

The property is marketed by Savills at offers over £630,000.
