Set within a handsome red sandstone tenement at Shawlands Cross, this ground-floor one-bedroom flat blends period character with a modernised interior. High ceilings and a bay-window lounge give the apartment a bright, airy feel, while a full dining kitchen provides practical everyday living and entertaining space. At around 742 sq ft the layout is notably generous for a one-bedroom, offering versatile rooms and storage.
Practical comforts include double glazing, gas central heating, and secure entry, plus the property is sold freehold. The Home Report valuation is £165,000 while the current asking price is £159,000, offering a small margin for value-conscious buyers.

Buyers should note the wider area is classified as very deprived, and a ground-floor position can bring increased street-level activity and noise. No flood risk is recorded.
