About
Homes For You are delighted to present this truly impressive three-bedroom upper conversion forming part of a substantial sandstone detached villa built in 1904 for the locally renowned Blackadder family.
Occupying an enviable central Falkirk location, this exceptional home successfully blends outstanding period character with modern-day comfort and convenience.
This is a home that immediately stands apart from the ordinary.
Beautifully presented throughout, the current owners have created interiors that perfectly complement the property's Edwardian heritage, blending rich colours, elegant finishes and carefully considered design with the grandeur and proportions only period homes can offer.
Accessed via a private entrance and staircase, the accommodation opens into a bright and welcoming reception hallway with attractive flooring and access to all apartments.
The hallway itself immediately sets the tone for the quality and space found throughout the property. The magnificent bay-windowed lounge is undoubtedly one of the home's standout features.
Rich navy tones, intricate original cornicing, bespoke shelving, a striking wood-burning stove and impressive ceiling heights combine to create a room full of character and warmth.
The large bay window floods the room with natural light whilst showcasing the scale and elegance rarely found in modern homes.
The dining kitchen has been thoughtfully upgraded and offers an excellent range of contemporary units, integrated appliances, Belfast sink and ample space for everyday dining.
The accommodation includes two particularly impressive double bedrooms and a well-proportioned third bedroom which would also make an excellent nursery, dressing room, home office or guest bedroom.
Each room enjoys the wonderful ceiling heights and character expected from a property of this era, whilst the carefully chosen décor enhances the sense of style and individuality throughout the home.
The principal bedroom is especially impressive, offering exceptional proportions, a feature fireplace and ample space for freestanding furniture.
The stylish shower room is finished with quality tiling, a large shower enclosure, mains-fed shower and heated towel radiator, creating a bright and practical space for everyday use.
Throughout the property, buyers will appreciate the beautifully preserved cornicing, traditional panelled doors, high ceilings and period detailing which have been carefully maintained and enhanced over the years.
Extensive upgrading by the current owner has created a home that successfully combines Edwardian charm with modern living.
Beautifully presented throughout and exceptionally well maintained, the property offers buyers the opportunity to move straight in and enjoy a home where the hard work has already been done.
Externally, the property benefits from private off-road parking accessed via a gated side driveway, a particularly valuable feature for such a central Falkirk location where private parking is seldom available.
Location Weir Street enjoys a highly convenient position within the heart of Falkirk town centre.
A wide range of shops, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets and leisure facilities are all within easy walking distance.
Falkirk Grahamston Station is nearby, providing excellent rail links to Edinburgh, Glasgow and beyond, while Falkirk High Station and the M9 motorway network are also easily reached for commuters.
The property's central location allows residents to enjoy all the benefits of town centre living whilst still enjoying the character, space and privacy associated with a much larger home.
