Charming and spacious traditional villa situated in Lanark
Description
Nestled in one of the most sought-after neighbourhoods in Lanark, 13 Friars Lane is a charming and spacious traditional villa arranged over three floors, surrounded by beautifully maintained mature gardens. This substantial home has been upgraded by the current owners who have thoughtfully modernised it while preserving many original features. The peaceful gardens enhance the elegance of this handsome property.
Upon entering, a grand vestibule adorned with decorative mosaic tiles leads into a roomy hall, showcasing a stunning curved staircase with an ornate balustrade. On either side of the ground floor, there are two generously sized reception rooms: a large dining room and a tastefully decorated living room featuring a focal fireplace and dual-aspect windows that flood the space with natural light. Additionally, a cosy family room with a multifuel fire provides an inviting spot for relaxation. The spacious bathroom includes a suite with a WC, wash hand basin, bidet, and bath. At the rear of the home, the kitchen stands out as a highlight, designed in a timeless Shaker style with black granite countertops. It offers ample base and wall-mounted storage, a range cooker, and a Belfast-style sink, complemented by three windows that frame lovely views of the garden. A side door leads to a charming patio area. Completing the ground floor is a sizable utility room with excellent storage options, a gardener's WC, a boiler room, and a pantry.
On the first floor, the landing is graced by a striking custom made stained glass window featuring the Lanark Crest. Off the landing are four spacious double bedrooms, two with en suite shower rooms, a dressing room/study, and an additional family shower room. A staircase leads up to the attic room, which spans the length of the property. Currently used as a home office, art room and for storage, this versatile space has potential as a home cinema or large office.
The exterior of this home is as attractive as the interior. The front garden is predominantly laid to lawn, featuring a driveway that provides ample off-street parking for several vehicles and access to the side garage. At the rear, the meticulously-tended garden is a lush lawn bordered by mature trees and a mix of stone and brick walls, while a wrought iron gate leads to an additional garden space with a wildflower patch and a second lawn. Adjacent to the kitchen is a patio and BBQ area, perfect for outdoor dining.
Location
Friars Lane is situated close to Lanark town centre with its numerous shops and amenities. Picturesque Castlebank Park is located at the foot of Friars Lane and is linked by the Clyde Walkway to the World Heritage Site of new Lanark and the Falls of Clyde. Lanark has served as an important market town since medieval times and King David the First made it a Royal Burgh in 1140. It was originally the county town of Lanarkshire.
Lanark offers a full range of services including supermarkets, restaurants, banks and professional services. There are three primary schools in the town and Lanark Grammar, founded in 1183, is one of the oldest schools in Scotland. Private education is available at Hamilton College or the many Edinburgh and Glasgow schools. As a thriving, welcoming small community, Lanark boasts clubs and societies catering for every sporting and cultural interest, including an 18-hole championship golf course, which this year plays host to the British Girls Home International matches, and the former racecourse that now provides a wide range of outdoor sports facilities including an equestrian centre. Lanark is exceptionally popular with commuters to both Glasgow and Edinburgh and offers both a railway station with direct services to Glasgow and good access to the main motorway network.
