Description

Forth Valley Homes are delighted to introduce to the market this truly one-of-a-kind architectural gem, affectionately known as "The New House," set within Crownest Loan in Stenhousemuir.

Built in 1974 and inspired by the iconic style of Frank Lloyd Wright, this exceptional five-bedroom detached home; often referred to locally as "The Glass House"; offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of architectural history. Designed with vision and individuality, the property showcases bold lines, split-level living, and floor-to-ceiling glazing that seamlessly connects the indoors with its lush, wraparound garden grounds.

From the moment you approach the house via its private driveway; with parking for over ten cars and a double garage; you're struck by its unique presence and tranquil setting. The home is nestled within approximately half an acre of beautifully maintained grounds, offering both privacy and a sense of escape, while still being just minutes from the heart of Stenhousemuir.

Inside, the property has been partially renovated by the current owners, who have carefully maintained its character while beginning the process of modernisation. A new, high-quality boiler has already been installed, offering efficient, reliable heating throughout the home. However, the property still offers huge potential for a new owner to complete the renovation and fully realise the home's incredible architectural promise.

The accommodation is arranged across three thoughtfully designed levels, with light-filled spaces and flexible living throughout. The expansive open-plan lounge and dining area forms the heart of the home, with dramatic windows offering uninterrupted views of the garden. Adjoining this is a conservatory-style garden room; an ideal spot for relaxing in all seasons.

There are five generous double bedrooms, four versatile reception areas, and a lower-level games room or studio, providing ample space for family life, remote working, or creative use. The layout encourages both social connection and peaceful retreat, with natural light enhancing every corner of the home.

While already striking in its design, "The New House" also presents a unique canvas for further restoration or personalisation. It was proudly featured by the Strathclyde Group of the Architectural Society of Scotland, cementing its place as a local architectural landmark.

Crownest Loan offers leafy surroundings with excellent links to Falkirk, Stirling, Glasgow, and Edinburgh by road and rail. Local amenities, schools, and parks are all within easy reach, making this a convenient and family-friendly location.

This is more than just a home; it's a legacy, a design statement, and a rare opportunity to complete the vision of a truly unique property in the heart of Forth Valley.

Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate everything this iconic property has to offer. Offers over £399,995 are invited.

Nestled in the heart of Stenhousemuir, Crownest Loan offers a quiet, residential setting with the charm of a close-knit community and the convenience of modern living. This established neighbourhood lies just outside Larbert, one of central Scotland's most desirable commuter towns, known for its excellent transport links and family-friendly feel.

The location itself strikes a perfect balance. For families, it's within easy walking distance of Stenhousemuir Primary School and the ever-popular Larbert High School both of which are highly regarded. Day-to-day life is made simple with local shops, takeaways, and medical services all nearby. Local GP & Dental surgeries are just a short stroll away, while Forth Valley Royal Hospital sits less than two miles down the road.

Despite its peaceful vibe, Crownest Loan is well connected. Larbert train station is under a mile away, offering direct rail links to Stirling, Glasgow, and Edinburgh, making it an ideal base for commuters. Buses run regularly through the area, and the nearby M876 motorway ensures quick access to the wider Central Belt.

One of the standout features of living here is the blend of tranquility and accessibility. You're minutes away from the open green spaces of Stenhousemuir and Falkirk, but also surrounded by reliable amenities; and even high-speed gigabit broadband, perfect for remote work or streaming.
