3 The Property Forming part of an exclusive conversion of 1890 Stone Barns nestled in the idyllic West Lothian countryside, The Carthouse has been sympathetically designed to preserve the historic integrity of this Scottish vernacular building, whilst creating a modern family home of unrivalled style, luxury and elegance. In addition to panoramic views of the surrounding rural landscape, the property boasts lovely enclosed gardens and substantial private parking. Situated near the conservation village of Torphichen and just a short drive from the M8/M9 motorway network, Wallhouse Farm Steading is approached along a quiet B- road, followed by a smooth tarmac track flanked by green fields and mature woodland. Positioned behind a large private garden bound by manicured hedges, the semi-detached house instantly endears with its rustic stone façade, slate roof and charming timberclad porch. From here you step into the breathtaking kitchen/dining room, which is flooded with natural light from dual-aspect windows, including wide patio doors set into the original cart house archways. Drawing on a natural palette of rich timber, granite and slate, the open-plan space strikes the perfect balance of country grandeur and contemporary minimalism. In the corner the gleaming gloss-white kitchen is topped with dark marbled granite, and is replete with a full range of integrated appliances. This leaves fabulous dining space to suit every occasion - from family celebrations and entertaining at a large refectory table, to busy breakfasts and cosy weeknight suppers around the convivial island. Soft cream carpet marks the transition into the vast yet intimate living room, which is characterised by its magnificent double-height ceiling and glass-balustrade mezzanine. Doors from both the living room and the kitchen lead into an inner hall, which accommodates a generous double bedroom (also an ideal study or home office), an immaculate three-piece bathroom and a fully fitted utility room. A handsome oak staircase ascends to the airy mezzanine landing, which features a luxurious master bedroom with bespoke built-in wardrobes and a dressing area, as well as a lavish en-suite shower room with a double walk-in shower. Also on this level are two bright and spacious double bedrooms, and the immaculate threepiece shower room. Designed for optimum home comfort and efficiency, the property benefits from gas central heating and electric underfloor heating in all three bathrooms, as well as comprehensive SIPS wall/roof insulation and double glazingthroughout. Gardens The private garden to the front and side is bound by well-tended hedges, and comprises a vast manicured lawn and a neat patio. Directly opposite is a shared green set against rolling fields, and to the rear is a charming communal courtyard. Parking The property enjoys a detached single garage and a double driveway, as well as ample visitors parking. Extras The property shall be sold as seen including all fitted carpets and floor coverings, light fixtures and integrated appliances (electric hob, electric single oven, combination microwave oven, dishwasher and fridge/freezer).
