Tollbooth Townhouse | St Monans

Recently extended in July 2025, this architect designed seafront home feels like a special family hideaway. Perched on a crag with sweeping views over the Firth of Forth and St Monans historic church, it is the kind of place where mornings with a coffee and evenings watching the tide become part of everyday life.

The front door opens to a welcoming reception hall and a ground floor sea facing bedroom with an en suite, ideal for visiting grandparents or a quiet guest room. A short staircase with contemporary steel balustrade leads up to the main living areas, giving the house a cosy layered feel.

On the first floor the kitchen is the heart of the home: a luxurious fully equipped space with a new butcher’s block perfect for family cooking and baking. The adjacent dining room, created in the new extension, has stunning sea views and folding doors that open to the decking, great for family meals that move outdoors in summer.

Also on the first floor the master bedroom enjoys the same sea views and opens directly onto the side decking through folding doors, with its own contemporary en suite for extra convenience. A comfortable twin bedroom at the rear is perfect for children, with plenty of storage and space for play. The fully tiled family bathroom has a bath and overhead shower for relaxed mornings.

A mezzanine chill out space, accessed by a fixed ladder, offers a quiet nook for reading or a teenage hangout, while seven steps up lead to a bright lounge with a Juliet balcony and breathtaking panoramic views, a lovely spot for family movie nights or watching the sunset together.

Outside provides lots of safe low maintenance space for family life: side and front patios for outdoor dining, a decking area that overlooks St Monans church, a large rockery and an upper garden area. A back gate opens directly onto the Fife Coastal Path, making beach walks and coastal adventures effortless for the whole family.

Practical touches include a utility and storage cupboard with washer and dryer, fitted wardrobes, wifi throughout, and private parking for up to four cars with two spaces at the front and two at the rear. This move in ready home is perfect for families seeking a comfortable coastal base where everyday life feels a little bit special.
