Summary - 12, MALCOLM COURT, BATHGATE EH48 2SW
1 bed 1 bath Terraced
Low-maintenance one-bed let with immediate rental income and allocated parking.
Investment purchase only — sold with tenant in situ
Sold specifically as an investment and offered as a going concern with a tenant in situ, this ground-floor one-bedroom property in Bathgate is aimed at buy-to-let purchasers seeking straightforward income. The flat is presented in tidy, neutral order with a comfortable living room, fitted kitchen, double bedroom with wardrobes and a three-piece bathroom. The compact footprint and low-maintenance paved rear garden reduce void and upkeep risk.
Practical features support rental appeal: one allocated off-street parking space, freehold tenure, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The current rent is £575 pcm, which the listing states equates to a gross yield of about 7% at the asking price of £95,000 — useful for portfolio calculations but worth verifying against your finance and tax position.
Be clear about the material negatives: the sale is for investment purchasers only and the property is sold with the existing tenancy. EPC rating D and the wider area is recorded as very deprived, which may affect rental demand, tenant mix and long-term capital growth. The flat is small (approximately 468 sq ft) and best suited to single occupancy or couples rather than families.
For an investor wanting a low-management let in a central Bathgate location, this property offers immediate income and basic, move-in-ready accommodation. Budget for routine upkeep and check tenancy details, compliance records and energy/utility certificates before committing.
