House For Sale £245,000
Situated on a peaceful cul-de-sac in the village of Fauldhouse, this large, four-bedroom, semi-detached cottage offers spectacular country views and a sought-after semi-rural lifestyle within commuting distance of Edinburgh and Glasgow. It is close to open countryside and a local golf course, within easy reach of amenities, schools, and transport links, including Fauldhouse train station. The south-facing family home has been modernised with fresh decoration, new flooring, and a brand-new kitchen and washrooms. It comes with ample private parking and a huge garden, ideal for growing vegetables and enjoying the outdoors.
Please note - Alternative Layouts: We have created two alternative floorplans and CGI (3D) images to show the potential this home offers. These images are clearly marked CGI Artist Impression.
Inside, you are warmly greeted by a vestibule that leads through to a central hall. On the right is the living room. Spacious and brightly illuminated, this reception area is perfect for everyday use. It is enhanced by crisp white décor and a wood-inspired floor, creating an appealing blank canvas for buyers. Furthermore, it openly connects to a south-facing dining room for family meals. The kitchen is next door, sporting sleek handle-less cabinets and complementary worksurfaces, framed by marble-inspired splashbacks. The contemporary look is further enhanced by all-new integrated appliances. Just off the kitchen, there is a dual-aspect study with garden access. If desired, it could be used as a home gym or a play area. Located throughout the home, the four double bedrooms all continue the neutral palette, adding soft carpets for optimal comfort. The principal and second bedrooms have the largest dimensions, whilst the remaining bedrooms could alternatively be used as a home office or nursery (if required). They are served by a three-piece shower room and a modern three-piece bathroom, which is equipped with an overhead shower. Finally, there is a floored attic, installed with lighting and a Velux window. It can be used for storage and offers potential for a full conversion (subject to planning permission). Gas central heating, via new system and boiler, and double glazing ensure year-round comfort.
Outside, there is a private front driveway and a substantial rear garden, which enjoys beautiful countryside views. The garden also provides buyers with an outstanding opportunity: it is large enough to accommodate a landscaped lawn and patio area for the family, as well as having ample space for growing vegetables and fruits to really indulge in a countryside lifestyle.
Alternative Layouts
Although move-in ready, the cottage offers a wonderful opportunity for its new owners to create their dream home and gardens. We have created 2 alternative layouts, one as a 4-bedroom and one as a 3-bedroom home (see the Alternative Layout Floor plans). The new layout will see all of the reception areas to the one side and the sleeping quarters to the other. By extending the current study, it creates a large and welcoming reception hallway and boot room. The newly formed living and dining room can enjoy a double vaulted ceiling with twin skylights to allow warm southerly sun to stream in.
Extras: all fitted floor coverings, light fittings, and new integrated appliances (oven, ceramic hob, fridge/freezer, and washing machine) to be included in the sale.
