5 bed detached house for sale

Bank House, Main Street, Buchlyvie, Stirling FK8

Description

West Homes is proud to present this rare gem to the market - a charming and character-filled 5-bedroom home in the picturesque village of Buchlyvie.

Set in the heart of the village, this unique property is full of original features and offers generous space both inside and out. On the ground floor, you'll find a bright, welcoming living room, which leads into a spacious study and then on to a separate dining room. The kitchen is a highlight with its cabinetry, beautifully crafted and fitted by renowned kitchen designers Smallbone of Devizes. The outlook from the windows, over the lovely garden across to the Trossachs with Ben Ledi at their centre, gives an ever-changing and mesmerising view from the rooms on this side of the house.
Adjacent to the kitchen is a generous utility room, perfectly positioned for convenience. Additional ground-floor features include a walk-in stone-lined bank safe, cleverly hidden behind a standard house door in the living room. Once used when the property served as a banking hall, this unique feature retains its original fireproof shelving and adds a fascinating touch of history to the home.
Upstairs, the property boasts five well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which overlook the extensive rear garden. One bedroom includes a built-in shower, while a family bathroom serves the rest of the floor. All rooms are bright and airy, with good storage space, offering ample scope for personalisation and modernisation.
The attic is fully floored and easily accessible via a Ramsay ladder, providing additional storage or potential for further development.
Externally, the property continues to impress. The mature, private back garden is both spacious and beautifully maintained, offering a peaceful outdoor retreat. Tucked away at the far end is a greenhouse, a garden shed and a gated access point, which could provide a convenient shortcut to the nearby playground, primary school, and doctor's surgery.
