Summary - Broadshaw Estate, West Calder, EH55 8RG EH55 8RG
6 bed 4 bath Semi-Detached
Large private plot with sustainable heating and flexible living.
Six double bedrooms including top-floor self-contained annex
Set within three private acres on the Broadshaw Estate, this beautifully restored Arts and Crafts family home combines period charm with contemporary comforts. The house offers six double bedrooms, generous living spaces with high ceilings, and a handmade oak kitchen fitted with a Rangemaster and underfloor heating — ready for everyday family life and entertaining.
Sustainability and economy are built in: a cost-effective biomass boiler supplies heating alongside three HETAS-fitted wood-burning stoves for ambience and backup warmth. A fully self-contained top-floor annex with its own entrance provides flexible accommodation for older children, guests, multigenerational living, or potential holiday-let income; the current bedroom could be converted back to a kitchen if required.
Practical benefits include a multiple-car driveway, extensive landscaped gardens (approximately 1.5 acres formally maintained plus the wider three-acre plot), and strong country privacy with far-reaching rural views. The property has been newly renovated throughout, so internal maintenance needs are minimal.
Important considerations: broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is only average, which may affect home working or streaming. Council tax is expensive for the banding here, and the property sits in an area classified with rural deprivation indicators — services and facilities are further afield. Travel links are reasonable by car, and Livingston South station is a short drive for a 20-minute connection to Edinburgh.
