Set over 1,044 sq ft, this newly renovated two-bedroom apartment sits on the 2nd-floor east elevation of The Matrix Building. The open-plan living/dining/kitchen stretches over 31 ft, features floor-to-ceiling windows and patio doors to an enclosed balcony of over 17 ft — a strong draw for tenants seeking light and outside space. The main bedroom includes built-in wardrobes and an en suite; a second double and a main bathroom complete the layout. The apartment is presented in walk-in condition with engineered oak flooring and integrated kitchen appliances.
The development offers practical security and convenience: gated courtyard entry, a weekday concierge, secure communal access, lift and stair access. Transport links are excellent with nearby train and subway stations, airport bus links and fast road access to the M8. Proximity to Strathclyde and Caledonian Universities, conservatoires and the city’s cultural quarter supports steady rental demand from students and young professionals.
Notable positives include freehold tenure, an EPC B rating, no flood risk, and strong digital connectivity (excellent mobile and fast broadband). The property was built in 2004 and benefits from modern finishes following the recent refurbishment, so minimal immediate maintenance is expected inside the flat.
Buyers should note material negatives plainly: the local area is classified as very deprived, which can affect long-term capital values and the tenant mix; council tax is band F and described as expensive; ceiling heights are low-to-medium, which may feel less airy compared with newer high-ceiling apartments. These factors are balanced by the central location, on-site security and clear rental appeal for students and commuters.
