Summary - 8, PARKHEAD COTTAGES, WEST CALDER EH55 8BG
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Bright two-bed upper villa with garden, parking and great commuter links.
Two double bedrooms with good natural light
Set in central West Calder, this two-bedroom upper villa offers practical space and clear improvement potential for first-time buyers, downsizers or investors. The living room and bedrooms are well proportioned and bright, while the kitchen and bathroom are functional and ready for cosmetic updating to add value. Externally there’s private rear garden and scope to form a front driveway for multiple cars—useful for families or renters.
Location is a strong selling point: Parkhead Primary is within walking distance, local shops and leisure facilities are close by, and West Calder train station provides fast links to Edinburgh and Glasgow. The property’s freehold tenure and off-street parking add everyday convenience for commuters and car owners.
Buyers should note the flat is of average overall size (764 sq ft) and presents a mid‑20th‑century interior that will benefit from modernization; the lounge has a gas fireplace and wood flooring but the finish is dated. EPC rating D indicates moderate energy performance. The local area is described as economically challenged, which may affect resale pace and local services but also keeps the asking price competitive.
This home suits anyone wanting a starter house or rental asset where straightforward improvements—kitchen, bathroom refresh and cosmetic updating—can unlock further value. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the garden privacy, parking potential and commuter convenience.
