Chain-free ground-floor flat, freehold tenure

Gas central heating and double glazing for basic comfort

Requires modernisation and redecoration throughout
Small internal footprint and limited built-in storage
Area has higher deprivation — consider rental/resale impact
This ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Broxburn offers an affordable, chain-free entry to the property market or a compact buy-to-let opportunity. The accommodation is practical: a double bedroom, a modest living room, fitted kitchen, and bathroom with electric shower. Gas central heating and double glazing provide basic comfort, and the property includes a share of rear drying green and nearby on-street parking bays.
The location is genuinely convenient — a short walk to Broxburn Main Street, an adjacent Aldi, and local bus routes, with good motorway access to Edinburgh and Livingston and a nearby rail station at Uphall. Communal green space and a pleasant treed outlook give the flat a quieter aspect than many ground-floor units.
The flat will suit buyers on a budget or landlords seeking a low-entry investment, but it requires some updating and redecoration to modern standards. Internal space is modest at about 520 ft2, so purchasers should expect compact rooms and limited storage beyond the large hallway cupboard. The wider area shows higher levels of deprivation, which can affect rental demand and resale values in the short term.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, a low council tax band, EPC rating C, and chain-free sale. Important negatives are the need for modernization and the property’s small footprint; buyers should budget for cosmetic and possibly systems updates to realise full rental or resale potential.
