Summary - CRAIG DARROCH, 9, LINLITHGOW ROAD EH51 0DE
6 bed 3 bath Detached
Spacious period home with panoramic Forth views and large private garden, ideal for growing families.
Six bedrooms across three floors, generous principal and top-floor rooms
Set on an elevated plot with sweeping views across the Firth of Forth, this substantial six-bedroom Victorian stone house combines preserved period detail with careful modern upgrades. The generous 2809 sq ft layout includes four reception rooms, an orangery and a large kitchen/breakfast room, creating flexible living space for a growing family. Original features such as Minton floor tiles, tall ceilings, cornicing and working fireplaces give the house strong character.
Recent works address major items: new roof, refurbished sash-and-case windows, and updated heating and electrical systems, so the property is largely move-ready while still offering scope to personalise. The mature, southerly garden of around 0.75 acre is planted with fruit trees, has several seating areas, good privacy and a separate driveway to a large garage. An additional side plot could be suitable for self-build development, subject to obtaining planning permission.
Practical benefits include ample off-street parking, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for home-working — but buyers should note some material points. Council Tax is in a high band and the property sits within a broadly deprived area. Any conversion of the top-floor store to an ensuite, or development of the side plot, will require the appropriate consents.
For families wanting spacious period accommodation with spectacular Forth views and a large private garden, this home offers rare scale and potential in a coastal town setting. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the light, room proportions and the panorama from principal rooms.
