A compact two-bedroom top-floor flat in a quiet no-through road, a short walk from Glasgow University and Byres Road. The front lounge offers open-aspect views over a small park, while the kitchen and second bedroom face south for good daylight. Recent upgrades include a new hot water boiler and cylinder; the property also has double glazing and off-street residents’ parking.
The layout is practical: entrance hallway with built-in storage, a front lounge/diner, rear kitchen, two double bedrooms and a fully tiled shower room. The apartment’s modest 450 sq ft will suit a first-time buyer, student sharers or an investor seeking a conveniently located rental with city-centre access. Transport links and local amenities are excellent, including cafes, shops and parks within easy walking distance.
Be clear about limits: the flat is small and on the top (third) floor, so access involves stairs. Heating is electric, which can be more costly than gas, although the recent boiler/hot water cylinder reduces immediate maintenance needs. The property sits in a very deprived local area classification, which may affect long-term capital growth and some buyer preferences.
Overall this freehold flat offers immediate move-in condition for buyers who prioritise location, transport and proximity to university facilities over generous internal space. It represents practical value for a first-time buyer or an investor seeking steady demand from students and city professionals, provided you accept the compact footprint and some area-level challenges.
