Unique apartment in a b-listed, 16th century castle set within 4 acres of beautiful parkland. This charming lower ground floor residence blends medieval character with modern comforts, featuring impressive stone walls, arched ceilings, and historic details throughout.
Formerly known as Little Brighouse, Bridge Castle provides a remarkable backdrop for modern living. This spacious apartment comprises a grand drawing room with a spectacular arched ceiling, glittering chandeliers, and substantial stone walls-featuring characterful alcoves and an impressive stone fireplace housing a wood-burning stove. Natural light floods through front and side-facing windows, framing picturesque views of the Barbachlaw Burn and surrounding gardens.
An architecturally fascinating hallway marks where 16th century craftsmanship meets Victorian expansion, connected by authentic stone steps and offering ideal space for statement furniture or artwork. The generous kitchen/diner within the Victorian extension provides wonderful versatility for entertaining, with the original castle entrance-complete with historic coat of arms-adding distinguished character. The sunken kitchen features handsome wood-effect cabinetry, sleek dark laminate worktops, and modern appliances, including a double oven and an electric hob.
Two generous double bedrooms include a spacious principal room with extensive built-in wardrobes and a well-appointed en-suite bathroom featuring a bath with an electric overhead shower. The second bedroom, set within the original castle structure, captivates with its striking arched ceiling, historic stone lintel, and fascinating remnants of the castle's original defence system, enjoying dual aspect windows. A contemporary family shower room and substantial utility room complete the accommodation. Double glazing and efficient electric heating ensure year-round comfort throughout.

The Garden
The castle's approximately 4 acres of mature wooded grounds offer residents a private sanctuary of exceptional beauty. Manicured lawns sweep between established trees and thoughtfully designed borders, while the tranquil Barbachlaw Burn winds gently through the estate. Two allocated parking spaces included.

The historic royal burgh of Linlithgow, with its magnificent palace, charming high street, and scenic loch, is only 7 miles away, providing excellent local amenities including independent shops, restaurants, and recreational facilities.
Bathgate, just 4 miles distant, offers comprehensive shopping facilities, entertainment venues, and transport links, including its train station with frequent services to both Edinburgh and Glasgow.
