The property

Situated in an enviable corner plot near the heart of Strathaven, this elegant Edwardian detached villa was constructed circa 1913. It retains a wealth of period detailing including cornicing and stained glass, press cupboards and period fireplaces, plus an original fitted safe in the family room. Contemporary additions include gas central heating, full double glazing and a modern boiler. Beyond a tiled and storm-doored entrance vestibule, the reception hallway is centred on an ornate mahogany staircase illuminated by stained-glass windows. Three public rooms include a bay-windowed lounge, and sitting/family rooms which could be used in a variety of different guises. Beyond an understairs cupboard and a part-glazed pantry, an inner hallway accesses a kitchen with three walls of cabinets and double-aspect views. A rear corridor reveals a WC, utility room and porch leading out onto a tarmac courtyard. The staircase pauses at a half-landing, where a WC and bathroom with double shower cubicle are situated. Stairs continue to the first floor proper, with four double bedrooms including a bay-windowed apartment overlooking the Strathaven skyline and open countryside beyond. A fifth bedroom also faces east, beyond a fixed staircase leading to a fully floored attic with immense potential for development. Externally, this property is surrounded on three sides by mature landscaped gardens. A lengthy tarmac driveway extends towards a detached single garage with adjoining brick-built outhouse. The level and lawned rear garden is west-facing, bounded by well-established shrubs. The shops and cafes of Common Green are within a five-minute walk along Townhead Street, while Strathaven is ten minutes by car from junction 8 of the M74 motorway. D
