This small three-bedroom end-of-terrace occupies a prominent corner plot in Skinflats, offering wide open views across fields to the Forth. The wraparound garden and side driveway give scope for outdoor living and modest extension or landscaping (subject to consents). The property measures about 690 sqft and is best-suited to buyers seeking a compact family home or a first-time purchase with scope to add value.
Internally the house is a mid-20th-century pebble-dash property that requires modernisation throughout. The living room retains period features such as a brick fireplace and decorative ceiling but decor and finishes are dated; the listing and images describe the accommodation as a fixer-upper. There is one shower room on the ground floor and three double bedrooms upstairs — layout flexible but constrained by the property’s modest overall size.
Practical points: broadband speeds are average, mobile signal is excellent, and the site carries no recorded flood risk. The surrounding area is semi-rural with basic local amenities (playground, leisure facilities, post box) and good road links via the nearby M9, making commutes to Falkirk, Stirling or Edinburgh possible. Note the wider area is recorded as relatively deprived, and tenure is not specified in the available documentation — these should be confirmed before purchase.
Overall this is a clear renovation opportunity for a buyer willing to invest in modernising the interior to unlock the house’s corner-plot potential and countryside outlook. The property suits first-time buyers or those seeking a compact family home with scope to improve and personalise.
