We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Set on the third and top floor of a modern development in Whiteside Court, Bathgate, this beautifully presented 2 bedroom apartment offers an elevated position, generous proportions and the ease of chain-free living - ready for its next owner to step straight in and enjoy.
The approach is immediately welcoming, with a well-maintained communal entrance leading to the apartment.
Inside, the hallway creates a strong first impression, finished with practical coir matting at the entrance before transitioning into soft carpeting that flows throughout the majority of the home.
Storage has been carefully considered, with two substantial cupboards, one of which has been cleverly adapted into a utility space, keeping everyday essentials neatly tucked away.
The main living area is both spacious and inviting, with a calm outlook to the rear and a Juliet balcony that draws in natural light, enhancing the sense of openness.
This is a room designed for real living - equally suited to quiet evenings or relaxed entertaining. The kitchen is positioned just off the lounge, offering a functional yet stylish environment.
Fitted with warm beech-toned base and wall units, it provides ample storage and workspace, complemented by an integrated oven, hob and hood and fridge.
There is space for additional appliances, along with a cupboard housing the combi boiler, ensuring everything is both accessible and neatly contained.
Both bedrooms are well-proportioned doubles, each enjoying a rear-facing aspect.
The principal bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and its own en-suite shower room, finished with contemporary wet wall panelling and a mains rainfall shower, alongside a WC and wash hand basin, creating a private, well-appointed retreat.
The second bedroom offers flexibility, ideal for guests, home working or additional living space.
The main bathroom is finished with a three-piece suite and tasteful tiling to splashback areas, providing a clean and practical space for everyday use.
Externally, the property further benefits from an allocated parking space, adding convenience to its list of features.
The development itself is well-kept, and its position within Bathgate offers easy access to local amenities, transport links and commuter routes.
Extras: All floor coverings, blinds, light fittings, integrated oven, hob and hood and fridge.
