An unusually affordable one-bedroom flat in the heart of Rothesay, suited to a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-entry purchase. Set on the first floor of a Victorian stone building, the flat benefits from a bay-windowed living area that brings good natural light and high ceilings that hint at the building’s period character.
The layout is compact and practical: hallway with storage, open-plan living/kitchen, double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, and a shower room. The property has gas central heating, a shared drying green, and is Freehold — practical positives for a buyer mindful of running costs. Council Tax is low (Band A) and there is no flooding risk.
Be upfront about the condition: carpets and fixtures are dated and the accommodation is small, so cosmetic updating will be needed to bring the flat to modern standards. Broadband speeds are average and the wider area shows higher deprivation; this affects resale and rental demand but also explains the very low asking price.
For a first-time buyer, this flat offers rare affordability and the chance to personalise a compact city-centre home. For an investor or holiday-let operator, the central High Street location, excellent mobile signal and proximity to amenities support short-term rental potential, though you should factor in refurbishment costs and the local economic context.
