Golf's dream home is for sale at ￡1.75million
An apartment overlooking the St Andrews Links with stunning views across the Old Course has been put on the market linkby Edinburgh estate agents Strutt and Parker, who are looking for offers over￡1.75million.The double upper apartment at 14 The Links - with second floor views over the 18th green, first tee and R&A link clubhouse - is probably the best residential address in sport.While members of the R&A may enjoy an elite view of the championship from the revered clubhouse, the uninterrupted views from the bay-windowed link sitting room of 14 The Links are arguably even better across the treasured links and the sandy shores of the West Bay.
The last home to be sold on The Links, which changed hands last year, became the priciest property per square foot in Scotland - equivalent link to at least ￡1,350 per sq ft - putting it on a par with London's Mayfair, Monaco or Beverly Hills.Premiums of properties beside the course are due to the view, link the location, the history and the tradition of the most famous course in the world with the prospect of being able to take advantage of a year-round view of the Home of Golf with front row seats at the annual dunhill Links and The Open when it comes to St Andrews around every five years on the rota.
