This chain-free ground-floor flat on Wallace Street is a compact, practical home well suited to a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The accommodation includes a double bedroom, living room, fitted kitchen and shower room within about 395 sq ft, with gas central heating and double glazing already in place.
The property sits in a Victorian terrace and includes access to a shared rear garden and a basement area. The kitchen is fitted with integrated appliances and the bedroom has built-in storage, so little immediate work is needed to make the flat liveable. Council Tax is low and broadband speeds are reported fast.
Notable points for buyers: the flat is small and will suit those seeking a modest one-bedroom home or a rental unit rather than spacious living. EPC rating D and the location in a very deprived area are factors to weigh for longer-term value and running costs. There is a current long-term tenant, so purchasers wanting vacant possession should confirm arrangements.
Overall, the apartment offers straightforward, affordable entry to the Dumfries market with clear rental potential and limited maintenance requirements, but buyers should factor in size, energy rating and area-level deprivation when assessing future resale or rental returns.
