Welcome to Benvue East

Follow the pleasant countryside roads into the east side of Bo'ness and arrive in sought after Grahamsdyke road where Benvue East is nestled on a magnificently generous and well established garden plot with a large driveway providing ample parking space.



Nestled snugly between Falkirk and Edinburgh, and adjacent to the town of Linlithgow; enjoy the best of both worlds, away from it all yet within easy reach of roads and transport links when duty calls.



Ancient Origins

Make your way to the arched vestibule with storm doors, a practical comfort to the home, whilst giving an excellent first impression. Steeped in history, Benvue East is a beautiful late Victorian 'Arts and Crafts style' semi-detached villa revived for 21st century living, with the original house dating back to 1892. High ceilings instantly elevate this period home, as do the abundant period features on display throughout, with particular mention being given to the numerous working fireplaces, sash and case windows, tiled floor in the hallway, and ornate cornicing throughout.



Formal Entertaining

Turning right upon entry to the lower level, seek sanctuary in the serene lounge, a formal space where light streams in through the broad bay window offering wonderful views towards the Ochil Hills. The ultimate entertaining space, impress friends and acquaintances in this large, light room, whilst listening to the crackles of the wood burning stove recessed into the original fireplace.



Retrace your steps back to the hallway and make your way into the dining room, where wooden flooring takes over from the gorgeous, tiled floor. Light the fire and warm up against the flames on cooler evenings, take a seat at the window to admire those views before enjoying a feast at the dining table with family and friends.



Practical Kitchen

Bright, inviting and utterly charming, this spacious kitchen offers high quality Quartz worktops, plentiful storage space as well as integrated appliances, a professional grade range cooker, and a central island breakfast bar. Next door, there is a well-equipped utility room housing the laundry appliances, and a majestic bathroom.



French doors in the kitchen open effortlessly onto a glorious south facing courtyard, surround by lush greenery and mature trees, and is a real sun trap. The courtyard benefits from having a wood store, workshop and a shed.



Home Working

Before heading upstairs, follow the flow back to the hallway and you will find the study which could easily be used as a fifth bedroom or, perhaps more likely, the ideal reading or music room.



Sweet Dreams

Returning to the grand curved staircase, ascend to the captivating gallery landing on the upper floor. The first floor currently accommodates four spacious and well-proportioned light-filled king-size bedrooms, with each one offering their own unique charm, and two partially tiled shower rooms. The bedrooms to the front elevation, offer a far-reaching vista over the local townscape, River Forth and beyond.



The Garden

Split into various sections, featuring well-established greenery and mature trees, the gardens surrounding Benvue East are beautiful and extensive.



Soak up the morning sunshine that continues throughout the day with your coffee in the gravelled area, as you admire the view over to the Ochils from your elevated position.



On warmer days, take your meals out to the generous south facing garden to dine alfresco and relish in the total peace and tranquillity of your own private hideaway.



With outdoor lighting to guide your steps from dusk, a large double garage with a home office attached, as well as extensive parking space on the driveway, Benvue East offers an abundance of space and captivating areas to explore.
