Balfour Place, St. Andrews, Fife

Balfour Place is the current project for Eastacre, the award-winning St Andrews developer. They are renowned for building high quality modern houses which complement the surrounding, historic built landscape.

The five new houses will be detached and arranged in a row. There will be a parking space and car port to the front with a south facing balcony and terrace to the rear. The interiors will be contemporary with an open plan living area on the upper floor and bedrooms on the ground floor.
