This compact one-bedroom top-floor tenement flat offers simple, low-cost ownership and clear rental potential for buy-to-let investors. At about 431 sq ft, the layout includes an open-plan lounge/kitchen, bedroom with fitted wardrobe, bathroom and two hallway storage cupboards — practical use of a small footprint.
Set in Shettleston in Glasgow’s East End, the property benefits from fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and easy access to the M74/M8 corridors plus regular bus services. Local amenities and recreational options are close by, including Tollcross Park, Tollcross leisure centre and the Emirates Arena, supporting tenant appeal.
Sold as seen and described as requiring improvement, the flat is offered with an EPC rating of D and sits in a very deprived area; that combination keeps the purchase price low but may limit immediate capital growth. The building’s Victorian character and high ceiling heights (in the block) present basic period appeal, though internal finishes are modern laminate and neutral and may need updating depending on rental strategy.
Suitable for hands-on investors seeking an affordable entry-level buy-to-let or a refurbishment project, this freehold flat is best for purchasers comfortable managing work remotely or arranging contractors. Council tax is very cheap, which helps running costs for tenants or an investor owner-occupier.
