Lillybank Cottage, Fauldhouse

Dating from circa 1900, this exceptional period residence is a home of remarkable character and individuality, combining beautiful traditional features with generous, versatile accommodation, a separate one bedroom annexe, private parking and a delightful south west facing garden.
From the moment you step inside, the quality and character of the property are immediately apparent. The welcoming entrance vestibule is finished with beautiful decorative floor tiling, opening into an impressive hallway where high ceilings, traditional detailing and elegant proportions set the tone for the rest of the home.
One of its most striking architectural features is the substantial dark timber staircase and galleried upper landing, creating a wonderful sense of scale through the heart of the property. Decorative ceiling roses, period style mouldings, deep skirtings and carefully retained detailing further enhance the home's distinctive turn of the century character.
The reception rooms are equally impressive. The elegant dining room is particularly atmospheric, with a striking black fireplace incorporating rich green tiled detailing providing a superb focal point. To the rear, the generous lounge offers a more relaxed setting, centred around a multi-fuel stove, with French doors opening directly onto the south west facing garden.
The contemporary kitchen provides an excellent contrast to the period architecture, with stylish cabinetry, extensive work surfaces and a substantial island with breakfast bar seating, flowing into the adjoining family/dining area. A downstairs bathroom adds further practicality.
A real highlight is the separate one bedroom annexe, comprising its own lounge with dining/study space, fitted kitchen, double bedroom and shower room, an exceptional arrangement for extended family, guests or independent living.
Upstairs, four well proportioned bedrooms continue the home's impressive sense of space, with the principal bedroom benefiting from fitted wardrobes and excellent storage. The beautifully presented family bathroom features a freestanding bath, separate glazed shower and striking patterned floor tiling, complemented by a separate WC.
Outside, the south west facing rear garden provides a wonderfully private setting, with an established lawn, mature planting, paved pathways and a raised decked seating area. Vehicle access runs alongside the property to the rear driveway, providing valuable private off street parking.
Rich in period character yet perfectly suited to modern family life, this is a genuinely special home. Its soaring proportions, beautiful architectural detailing, statement fireplaces, magnificent staircase, separate annexe and south west facing garden combine to create a property with a presence and personality rarely found.
