This chain-free, two-bedroom terraced house on Whitelaw Drive is a practical, move-in-ready choice for first-time buyers or investors seeking low-maintenance living. The home offers a bright open-plan kitchen/dining area, a comfortable lounge and a private south-facing garden that catches the sun. Modern kitchen fittings, a recent bathroom shower and an EPC rating of C reduce immediate maintenance concerns.
Accommodation is compact at around 753 sq ft and arranged over two floors, so the house will suit a small family, couple or buy-to-let purchaser rather than someone needing large rooms. Both bedrooms open directly onto the garden, creating a light, airy feel, but overall room sizes are modest. There is an attached garage/store and off-street parking for convenience.
Location is a key strength: Bathgate Train Station and the M8 are within easy reach for commuters, and local shops, playgrounds and schools are walkable. Broadband and mobile signals are excellent. Buyers should note the wider area is classified as very deprived, which may affect long-term capital growth and some local services.
Overall this property offers straightforward, contemporary living with clear commuter advantages and low running costs. It presents a sensible purchase for a first-time buyer wanting a ready-to-live-in home, or an investor targeting reliable rental demand, provided you accept the modest footprint and local area challenges.
