Glenfield, Livingston Village

Some homes just have that little bit extra, and Glenfield is certainly one of them. Beautifully presented, thoughtfully extended and offering an exceptional amount of living space, this is a home that has been designed around family life. From the stylish lounge with its bespoke media wall to the stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and family room at the rear, every part of this property has something to offer. Add in generously sized bedrooms, a versatile attic space, a private rear garden and a lovely setting within Livingston Village, and it's easy to see why this home is something special.

Stepping through the front door, you're welcomed into a bright hallway, finished in soft neutral tones with wood-effect flooring and crisp white woodwork. The staircase leads to the upper level, while a convenient downstairs WC is tucked neatly off the hallway.

To the front of the property is the lounge, a beautifully finished room that offers somewhere to relax away from the main family space. A large window brings in plenty of natural light, while the bespoke media wall, complete with inset fire and space for a wall-mounted television, makes a real statement. Soft carpeting and warm, neutral décor give the room a comfortable, homely feel, perfect for cosy evenings in.

Continuing towards the rear, you'll discover what really sets Glenfield apart.

The substantial rear extension has created an outstanding open-plan kitchen, dining and family room, and it's a space that really needs to be seen to appreciate its size. Beautiful herringbone style flooring runs throughout, bringing warmth and character to the room, while the extensive glazing and bi-folding doors allow natural light to pour in.

The bespoke Wren kitchen is a real highlight, with a striking combination of dark and light cabinetry, sleek worktops and a generous peninsula breakfast bar. There's plenty of storage and preparation space, along with integrated appliances, including Wi-Fi-controlled appliances that bring an extra level of modern convenience to everyday cooking. An instant hot water tap is another fantastic addition, making everything from preparing meals to that first cup of tea in the morning that little bit easier. The breakfast bar is ideal for a quick coffee or catching up while dinner is being prepared, while the kitchen's sleek finish and thoughtful design make it as practical as it is attractive. A separate utility area sits conveniently off the kitchen, providing additional storage and keeping the everyday laundry and household essentials out of sight.

The dining area is equally impressive, with enough room to comfortably seat ten people around the table. It's easy to imagine Christmas dinner here, family celebrations or evenings entertaining friends, with everyone able to gather together without feeling short of space.

Beyond the dining area is a wonderful family room, with plenty of space for large sofas and additional furniture. The bi-folding doors stretch across the rear, framing views of the garden and making this a particularly lovely place to spend time. During the warmer months, opening the doors onto the decking creates a fantastic entertaining space, with the kitchen, dining area and garden all connected.

What works so well about this extension is that, despite being completely open plan, there's still a clear distinction between the kitchen, dining and seating areas. It feels spacious and sociable without losing that all-important homely atmosphere.

Heading upstairs, the generous bedroom accommodation is another real selling point. Every bedroom has the proportions to accommodate a double bed, something that offers fantastic flexibility for growing families or anyone needing additional space to work from home.

The principal bedroom is a particularly attractive room, with a characterful sloping ceiling, panelled feature wall and a lovely combination of neutral and charcoal tones. Mirrored wardrobes provide excellent storage, while the private en suite shower room, complete with roof window and heated towel rail, adds a little extra luxury.

The remaining bedrooms are all well proportioned, with space for double beds and additional furniture. Whether you need bedrooms for children, a guest room, dressing room or home office, there's plenty of scope to arrange the accommodation to suit your needs. Each room has its own character, with good natural light and the same well-maintained finish seen throughout the property.

The family bathroom completes the upper level, featuring a bath with overhead shower, neutral tiling and attractive wood-effect detailing.

A further bonus is the attic space, which has been floored and carpeted and is currently used as a children's playroom. Accessed via a Ramsay loft ladder and benefiting from electricity, this is a fantastic additional space for toys, games and hobbies, while also offering excellent storage. It's one of those practical extras that makes such a difference in a busy family home.

Outside, the rear garden is every bit as appealing as the accommodation inside. The bi-folding doors open directly onto a generous decked terrace, providing a fantastic spot for outdoor dining, summer barbecues or simply enjoying some peace and quiet.

The decking is a particularly lovely part of the garden, offering a sheltered, private spot where the current owner enjoys sitting with a book. There's room for comfortable outdoor furniture, making it somewhere you can genuinely spend time rather than simply admire from the house.

Beyond the decking, a level lawn offers space for children to play, while raised planted borders and timber fencing create an attractive, enclosed setting.

Glenfield is a home that offers far more than first meets the eye. The separate lounge provides somewhere cosy to retreat to, while the impressive extension brings everyone together, whether it's a busy weekday morning or a house full of friends and family at the weekend. With beautifully finished interiors, generous bedrooms, additional attic space and a garden that's just as enjoyable as the space inside, this is a home that has been thoughtfully created for everyday living and making memories.

Livingston Village is one of Livingston's most charming and established residential areas, offering a lovely village atmosphere while remaining close to everything the town has to offer. With its mix of traditional character, green spaces and local amenities, it's a particularly appealing setting for family life.

The village itself is home to Livingston Village Primary School, a local nursery, community centre and the popular Livingston Inn, while Livingston Village Park provides a lovely outdoor space for families. The much-loved Almond Valley Heritage Centre is also within walking distance, offering a fantastic family day out with farm animals, play areas and a variety of activities throughout the year. Secondary schooling is available at Inveralmond Community High School and St Margaret's Academy, subject to catchment confirmation.

Just a short drive away, Livingston offers excellent shopping at The Centre and Livingston Designer Outlet, along with a wide choice of restaurants, cafés and leisure facilities. Livingston North Railway Station provides regular services to Edinburgh and Glasgow, while the nearby M8 motorway makes commuting across the Central Belt straightforward. It's a fantastic location for those looking to enjoy a quieter village setting without compromising on convenience.
