Summary - 118, EAST HIGH STREET, FORFAR DD8 2ER
Central High Street location with strong footfall
This centrally located one-bedroom maisonette sits above a ground-floor commercial unit on Forfar’s High Street, offering immediate rental or owner-occupier potential. The flat provides a bright living/dining room, a fitted kitchen with a WC on the lower level, and a double bedroom plus a large bathroom on the upper floor. Gas central heating and double glazing are already installed.
The building is a traditional Victorian mixed-use terrace with period features such as a fireplace and large front windows. The residential accommodation is average-sized (approx. 581 sqft) and currently shows older finishes; sensible refurbishment would improve comfort and market value. The commercial frontage is visible and suited to a retail or café operator, creating potential combined income streams for an investor.
Buyers should note this property sits in a very deprived area with a local classification of constrained renters. The interior is dated in places and would benefit from updating to reach its full rental or resale potential. Noise and footfall from the high-street commercial activity may affect privacy for the flat above.
Overall, this freehold flat is a practical choice for a first-time buyer seeking a central location that’s ready to personalise, or for an investor looking for a mixed-use opportunity to refurbish and increase income. Flood risk is low and broadband and mobile coverage are good for modern living.
