The Pap Inn dates back to 1783 and was originally a drover’s inn with its own still.

The house has been extended and upgraded over the years, while retaining many of its charming original features including beamed ceilings, feature fireplaces and timber doors.

Dominic Wedderburn of Galbraith in Cupar said: “This wonderful rural property combines great tranquillity and privacy with glorious open views and easy access to Cupar, Dundee and St Andrews. The accommodation is beautifully presented throughout, while the attractive and sunny garden is a further benefit. The property is likely to appeal to a wide range of buyers.”

The accommodation provides great versatility for a variety of uses, including on the ground floor: entrance porch, hallway, bathroom, bedroom with dressing room, sitting room, snug, kitchen, fifth bedroom  with en-suite shower room and utility room. On the first floor are two further bedrooms. A separate spiral staircase leads to an additional bedroom or studio.

Outside, the driveway leads to a parking area and double garage with a large timber greenhouse attached, overlooking the sunny garden. The beautiful mature garden is private and enclosed by a mix of stone walls, fencing and hedges. Mainly laid to lawn, the garden has shrubbed borders and a large paved terrace area with pergola, perfect for outside dining. To the side of the property is a small orchard.

The hamlet of Kettlehill and Burnturk has an active community trust which runs a programme of events for local residents. The wide open spaces of the Lomond Hills and the pretty fishing villages of Fife’s East Neuk are just a short drive. There are beautiful sandy beaches at St. Andrews, Tentsmuir, Kingsbarns, Crail and Elie.

The property is also within easy reach of the main towns and cities of eastern Scotland including St Andrews, 15 miles, Dundee, 20 miles and Perth 23 miles, while Edinburgh city centre is 38 miles. There are railway stations in Ladybank, Leuchars, Cupar and Markinch, with Edinburgh airport about a forty five minute drive to the south.
