EPC Rating - Band C

Approached via manicured communal gardens and a pathway flanked by leafy shrubbery, the marriage of contemporary wood cladding, glass and stone exteriors, offers the first glimpse of this beautifully designed home. The front door opens into a bright hall with handy built-in storage, fitted with handsome oak-styled flooring and decorated in muted hues. On your left, you step into the very heart of the home – the open-plan kitchen, living and dining room. Continuing the understated finish of the hall and enjoying a wonderfully light and airy ambience owing to its vaulted ceiling and multiple windows, including southerly-facing French doors and skylights, this delightful open space is perfect for everyday life and entertaining alike.

The living area offers plentiful floor space for both lounge and dining furniture configurations, whilst the kitchen is fitted with a selection of wood-styled cabinets accompanied by a granite-effect worktop and neutral splashback tiling. A range of integrated appliances also feature, whilst an adjoining utility area houses further fitted cabinetry, built-in appliances, and a breakfast bar enjoying a wonderfully sunny aspect with delightful countryside views.

Across the hall from the living area, the property’s sunny, dual-aspect double bedroom is decorated in the same tranquil tones as the rest of the property and fitted with plush carpeting for maximum comfort. The bedroom further benefits from a large built-in wardrobe and boasts lovely elevated views. Finally, a contemporary, recently upgraded shower room comprises a deluxe walk-in shower enclosure with a chic marble-styed surround and a rainfall shower head, a basin set into storage, and a hidden-cistern WC. Gas central heating and double glazing ensure year-round comfort and efficiency.

Externally, the apartment is accompanied by lovingly maintained communal gardens. The development provides its residents with convenient private parking.

From its historic 12th century origins, Bathgate has grown into a thriving county town. Marjoribanks Street hints at the daughter of Robert the Bruce, who was gifted the land on her marriage to Walter the Steward, hence founding the Stewart dynasty. The town still celebrates this event in the local Gala day Pageant. Commuters will appreciate the first-class transport links provided by the new state of the art railway station, with high speed trains to Glasgow, the capital and beyond. Bathgate is conveniently located close to the M8 and M9 motorways for easy access to Edinburgh Airport, just 25 minutes away. There is also a regular bus service networking throughout the county. Newly refurbished, the town centre offers a traditional shopping experience with ample parking and a mixture of high street favourites and good local businesses.
