Description
Halliday Homes Collection are delighted to welcome this much admired and extremely rare to market Grade A listed home. This unique and striking property, dating back to circa 1800 was originally the south wing and stable block of Parkhill House and has been fully reconstructed, whilst being sympathetic to the history of the building and retaining many original period features including original cast iron fireplace, tower stair case, exposed stone walls and high ceilings. Set in a small and secluded community with 50 acres of protected woodland/park on the doorstep, this plot extends to approximately quarter of an acre of mature gardens and grounds. A natural haven to a host of wildlife and birdsong. This unique and characterful stunning family home boasts a fantastic location and setting with amazing views from every room.
This property sits on an enviable plot with wooden gates welcoming you into the main enclosed courtyard garden featuring a large circular driveway with boxed hedge centre-piece, mature planting and secluded seating area which is a sun trap. A gate in the wall leads through to the ‘Secret Garden', another substantial area of private garden, bound by fencing, hedging and trees with stunning views over Gray Buchanan Park. To the rear of the property is the herb garden which offers a seating area and access to the mansion house courtyard and historic Dovecot.
Internally this home comprises flexible accommodation consisting of welcoming reception hall/snug with sunken seating area and cast iron fireplace, drawing room, kitchen, morning room, dining room. All the downstairs rooms benefit from deep set windows with wide window sills and high ceilings creating a feeling of space and enjoying an abundance of natural daylight. From the reception hall, the feature stair tower leads upstairs to a bright and spacious landing accessing the master bedroom with en-suite, three further bedrooms and a family bathroom. All bedrooms have built in wardrobes and floor to ceiling windows with cast iron Juliet balconies letting natural daylight flood in. There are two large cupboards offering ample storage.

There are also two National Cycle Routes and the John Muir Way nearby. Other visitor attractions include the Falkirk Wheel, the world's one and only rotating boat lift.
