Wider area flagged as very deprived — consider location factors
A modern four-bedroom detached home by Barratt Homes, arranged over two floors to suit growing families. The layout centres on a bright front lounge and a rear kitchen/dining room with French doors leading to a generous rear garden — ideal for outdoor meals and children’s play. The principal bedroom includes an en-suite and there are three further bedrooms plus a family bathroom for flexible family use.
Practical daily life is supported by an integral single garage, driveway parking for two, a separate utility room and a ground-floor WC. Connectivity is strong with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and commuting is straightforward via nearby train services and the A71/M8 links. Local shops, cafés and schools are within easy reach in Polbeth and neighbouring West Calder.
Buyers should note the property sits on a modest plot within a modern development; the immediate front garden and side access are compact and external space is average for this type of home. Internally there is a single principal reception room rather than multiple large living areas, which may limit entertaining layouts for some families. The wider area is described as having signs of deprivation, which potential purchasers may wish to consider alongside the home’s strengths.
Overall, this is a well-presented, low-maintenance family house that offers modern fixtures, good energy performance and strong transport links. It will suit buyers seeking a practical four-bedroom home with outdoor space and easy commuting rather than those prioritising large reception rooms or extensive grounds.
