The first development to change the face of Bo’ness waterfront has arrived. The magnificent Victorian landmark building of Custom House is to be carefully and sympathetically converted into 8 spacious, individual homes.
The Properties - Ranging in size from 1 bedroom to 3 bedrooms, Custom House is really quite special. The majority of properties have been designed to take account of the magnificent views over the Firth of Forth and to the Ochill Hills beyond. These individual homes will benefit from many of the original Victorian features – where possible these will be retained and carefully restored by the local development company. 12 foot high ceilings and exceptionally large sash and case windows will provide a true feeling of space and ensure an abundance of light. Intricate cornicing, detailed ceiling roses, high moulded skirtings and window shutters will be brought back to use. Some period fireplaces will also remain. Blend these period features with fully, fitted contemporary kitchens, quality bathrooms and en suites and excellent storage space and these homes are truly quite special.
Custom
House - The building boasts an array of external features
with moulded stone work to the entrance doors and windows. The slate
roof line has a nautical feel with a large turret and flag pole to
the east side of the building. Beneath this are two exquisite stone
carved gargoyles set around the Custom House emblem. To the west roofline
the original attractive weather vane can still be seen. Custom House
has a spectacular appearance with the east most corner extending out
to the north and south allowing the whole building to encompass an
attractive central courtyard.
The Choice - With only 8 properties within Custom
House, buyers will need to be quick to make their choice.
