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.
