This five-bedroom detached villa on McGregor Crescent blends red-brick elegance with modern family-friendly living. The ground floor offers a light lounge, a flexible family room that works as a fifth bedroom or home office, and a stylish kitchen/diner with integrated appliances and utility room. Upstairs are four good-sized bedrooms, including a master with a newly upgraded en-suite completed in September 2025, plus a family bathroom and useful loft storage.
Practical extras are strong: double monoblock driveway, fully enclosed rear garden safe for children and pets, gas central heating, double glazing and solar panels to reduce running costs. Security and convenience are enhanced by an alarm system, external cameras and a camera doorbell. Broadband is reported fast and the house sits within easy reach of the M8 and local stations for commuting to Edinburgh or Glasgow.
Be clear about local context and costs. The property sits in an area classified as very deprived with an ageing rural neighbourhood profile; nearby amenities exist but the wider area classification may affect future resale and community services. Council tax is above average for the area. The overall internal size (about 1,155 sq ft) is described as small/medium for a five-bedroom layout, so some buyers may find room proportions tighter than expected for five bedrooms.
This home will suit families seeking move-in-ready accommodation with practical outdoor space and good transport links. It also offers efficiency benefits from solar panels and potential rental appeal for multi-bedroom households, but buyers should factor higher local council tax and the area profile into their decision.
