Summary - 9 BLACKBURNHALL HOLDINGS, BATHGATE EH47 7AB
Set on a very large, private plot with rural/farm views
Set on an impressive, very large plot in a rural West Lothian setting, this three-bedroom detached bungalow offers a rare combination of private grounds and versatile outbuildings. The single-level layout centres on a generous living room with a log burner and conservatory, flowing to an elegant dining area and a modern grey-toned kitchen. Three double bedrooms include a principal suite with an ensuite; a separate family bathroom has a four-piece suite.
The property is well suited to family life and hobbyists: the grounds include an original barn/workshop, a fully insulated recording studio, a games room with projector space, a chicken coop and the remnants of an old bowling green. A wide driveway provides off-street parking for several vehicles and there is direct access to surrounding farmland, creating good privacy and rural outlooks.
Practical strengths include freehold tenure, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, substantial storage and a large utility/laundry room. The site also presents scope for small-scale extension or repurposing of the outbuildings (subject to planning), making it attractive for buyers seeking extra space or a home-based business base.
Notable drawbacks are factual and important: the EPC is rated E, council tax is above average, and parts of the outbuildings and historic features may need refurbishment. The local area is classified as an established farming community with primary sector workers and higher local deprivation measures—services and wider amenities are a short drive away rather than on the doorstep. Buyers should factor in running costs and potential upgrade works when assessing the purchase.
