The property

Enjoying lovely views of the surrounding countryside is this bright and spacious detached bungalow with large grounds. Constructed in 1972, the house has a fantastic rural location yet is minutes from the villages of East Calder and Ratho and there are excellent road links to Edinburgh, West Lothian, Stirling and the M8 leading to Glasgow. The house provides good sized accommodation with electric heating and double glazed windows and although requiring a degree of upgrading it offers excellent potential to create a lovely family home. The accommodation includes an entrance hallway with storage cupboard and a good sized lounge with window to the front capturing the lovely views. The kitchen is fitted with base and wall units with window to rear and storage cupboard. There is a bright dining room with patio doors to the front and three spacious bedrooms, all with fitted storage. The wet room is fitted with a two piece white suite and there is a window to the rear. An inner hallway with cupboard provides access out to the rear of the property. Externally, the house sits on a large plot with gardens extending to the front, side and rear which are mainly laid to lawn with established trees and shrubbery. A driveway provides off street parking and there is an attached garage with inspection pit and car port. There is an additional single garage, large workshop, various storage sheds and outbuildings providing excellent storage. Local leisure opportunities are abundant. The house is very close to the Union Canal towpath giving cycling and walking access for miles in both directions. The Almondell and Calderwood Country Parks are close by, as are Juniper Art Land, the Edinburgh International Climbing Arena, the Scottish National Equestrian Centre and Dalmahoy Golf and Country Club. The house is within walking distance of Clifton Hall private school, and Heriot Watt university is within easy reach. In short the house offers a rural setting with lovely open views, yet is close to Edinburgh Airport, Edinburgh and Livingston. Properties in this area are rare to the market and therefore early viewing is highly recommended.
