One of the oldest buildings in Kirkliston is its church, which dates from the 1100s. It was built for the Order of the Knights Templar when the village was called Temple Liston. Today, Kirkliston is a popular rural village, especially with commuters, because of its excellent motorway links, its close proximity to the road and rail bridges that span the River Forth, and its position in relation to Edinburgh Airport, which is just a few minutes' drive away.
If you are looking for property for sale in Kirkliston offering 2 or 3 bedrooms, there are post-war semi-detached houses with drives, detached bungalows, and new-build terraced townhouses. Estate agents in Kirkliston also represent new-build detached houses offering 4 bedrooms with an integral garage. Plans are on the table to build up to 600 new houses and flats on greenbelt land to the north of Kirkliston, almost doubling the size of the village.
