Drum Farm Lane, Bo'ness, EH51 9RJ

Some homes simply don't fit the usual mould; and 48 Drum Farm Lane is a perfect example.

Set within an attractive modern development in Bo'ness and constructed by Stewart Milne Homes, this highly individual detached coach-house style property combines beautifully presented one-bedroom accommodation with something exceptionally difficult to find at this price point: a double garage, additional single garage, generous parking and exciting potential for the future.

Offered at Offers Over £183,995, this is a home for buyers whose priorities extend beyond bedroom numbers.

For the car or motorcycle enthusiast, home worker, someone requiring secure storage or workshop space, or simply a buyer wanting considerably more flexibility than the average modern home can provide, No. 48 deserves serious attention.

Entering at ground level, the front door opens to an immaculate hallway with a staircase rising to the principal accommodation.
Upstairs, the house opens into an impressive open-plan living, dining and kitchen space. Windows on multiple aspects provide excellent natural light, including full-height south-facing windows to the front which take advantage of the elevated position and attractive open outlooks.
The space works exceptionally well, with a generous living area, ample room for a substantial dining table and a well-planned fitted kitchen. High-quality Karndean Art Select flooring further enhances the accommodation.

The kitchen features an extensive range of Shaker-style units, wood-effect work surfaces, integrated AEG appliances, gas hob and stainless-steel extractor. Its open relationship with the dining and living areas creates a wonderfully sociable heart to the home.

The current owner has even created a substantial home-cinema arrangement within the living area, demonstrating the versatility and proportions of the room.

The double bedroom continues the immaculate presentation and enjoys a pleasant open aspect, while the stylish bathroom features contemporary tiling, bath with shower over and premium Amtico Signature flooring.

BUT THE REAL SURPRISE IS DOWNSTAIRS...

It is the ground floor that makes No. 48 such an unusual proposition.

Three garage spaces are arranged as a double garage and separate single garage, providing an amount of secure covered space rarely associated with a one-bedroom home; particularly within this price bracket.

For an enthusiast, the possibilities are obvious: cars, classic vehicles, motorcycles, bicycles, detailing equipment, tools or workshop space can all be accommodated without compromising the living accommodation. For somebody running a business or working from home, the space could potentially fulfil an entirely different role.

Looking longer term, the extensive garaging may also offer scope for adaptation or conversion, subject to all necessary planning permissions, building warrants and other consents. Alternatively, retain all three garages and enjoy something many substantially larger houses simply cannot offer.

One garage is currently let separately and generates rental income, demonstrating another potential benefit for a buyer who doesn't require all three spaces personally.

Externally, there is generous additional parking, an EV charging point and an excellent position within the development. The elevated setting provides attractive open aspects, with the aerial photography demonstrating the property's combination of space, outlook and accessibility.

48 Drum Farm Lane isn't trying to be a conventional two or three-bedroom house; and that is precisely its appeal.

It could be ideal for a professional buying alone or as a couple; a car or motorcycle enthusiast; someone needing serious storage; a home worker looking for dedicated workspace; or as an interesting lock-up-and-leave base with secure space for vehicles and possessions.

Bo'ness enjoys an appealing position on the southern shore of the Firth of Forth, with a broad range of everyday amenities and excellent opportunities to enjoy the outdoors, including nearby Kinneil Estate and the heritage Bo'ness & Kinneil Railway.

Nearby Linlithgow offers its historic town centre, cafés, restaurants, independent businesses, palace and loch, together with mainline rail connections towards Edinburgh and Glasgow. Road links also place Falkirk, Grangemouth, Stirling, Edinburgh and the wider Central Belt within practical reach.

Detached. Immaculate. Three garage spaces. Additional parking. EV charging. South-facing windows. Open outlooks. Premium finishes.
