4 bed detached house for sale

Inchcross Drive, Bathgate EH48

Our Sellers say:

"We bought the house because we liked the design and layout, plus it was on a small private development by a local builder, so we were able to work closely with them (M&M) during construction. We love the house because it works really well for family living. The layout is excellent and it flows superbly from room to room. All the bedrooms have a buffer room or cupboard between each other which means noise levels are low and privacy is high.

My sanctuary is the ‘reading chair’ in the sitting room, which is a very relaxing place to be. My wife’s is the kitchen/diner, given the way the sunlight comes in through the patio door and windows even on a cold winter’s day it can feel warm and inviting. We’ll miss the neighbours, it’s a friendly street where people say ‘hello’ to each other and everyone is respectful, it’s a really happy place to live and has been since the house was built 21 years ago.

This stunning executive detached villa, crafted 21 years ago by local builders Moore and Mulhern, is situated on a preferred corner plot at the edge of a small, exclusive estate in the desirable Inchcross area of Bathgate.
