This charming 1920s cottage blends period character with practical family living. Bright, flexible accommodation includes three double bedrooms (all capable of super-king beds), a modern family bathroom, a recently renovated en-suite, and a ground-floor bedroom that works well as a master suite or guest room. High ceilings, original flooring and a bay-windowed living room with a log-burning stove give the house genuine character while recent upgrades provide modern comfort.
The layout is family-focused: an open-plan living and dining area, a practical kitchen with utility cupboard, downstairs WC, and a conservatory that opens to a low-maintenance south-facing garden with artificial lawn. A detached garage provides secure parking/storage; broadband is fast and commuting is straightforward with nearby motorways and train links to Glasgow and Edinburgh.
Buyers should note clear drawbacks: the property sits in an area assessed as very deprived, council tax is above average and the EPC is rated D. Mobile signal is only average. While the cottage has been well maintained, there is scope for cosmetic updating and further energy improvements for long-term running costs. Overall, this is a characterful, versatile family home offering space, period detail and low-exterior upkeep in a well-connected West Lothian location.
