Set on a generous plot in central Callander, Schoolhouse is a characterful Victorian detached home with strong family appeal. Three reception rooms and four bedrooms provide flexible living space for growing families, while high ceilings and original fireplaces add period character. The property sits on a quiet street close to schools, shops and transport links, with immediate access to the countryside and the Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park.
The house requires an extensive programme of modernisation: the kitchen and bathroom need upgrading and the property overall is described as needing renovation. EPC rating G and slow broadband are material considerations for buyers planning immediate occupation or resale. Council Tax is listed as expensive (Band F), and the surrounding area is noted as having higher deprivation, which may affect some buyer priorities.
Outside, driveway parking for several cars and a detached wooden garage with a separate entrance and large workbench are useful for hobbies and storage. Expansive gardens to both sides offer privacy, room for children to play, and clear potential for landscaping or extension subject to consent. The property’s size (approx. 1,399 sq ft) is average for a family house but the layout and plot provide scope to create a more contemporary family home.
This is a clear project opportunity for a family or buyer seeking a period house with space and character who is prepared to invest in upgrading. For purchasers prioritising move-in condition, broadband speeds, or low running costs, this home will require planned investment. For those drawn to Victorian features, generous garden and a central Callander position within easy reach of parks and transport, Schoolhouse offers strong long-term potential.
