Freehold one-bedroom flat with private garden
A compact, well-located one-bedroom flat on Schoolhouse Lane offering an affordable entry into Blantyre’s housing market. The layout is straightforward — porch, long hallway with storage, reception lounge, modest kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom — making day-to-day living simple and practical. Full double glazing and a gas combi boiler keep running costs down, and the property is sold freehold, which is unusual for a flat.
Outside space is a genuine bonus: a private garden provides room for sitting out or light gardening. At 366 sq ft the accommodation is small, so it suits a single buyer, couple or someone downsizing who values low overheads and manageable maintenance. The building is brick-and-block construction with a slate roof and standard utilities (mains water, national grid electricity, standard sewerage).
Local amenities and public transport are good, with easy links into Glasgow and nearby shops, schools and services. Council tax is very low, and broadband/mobile signals are strong, supporting home working. Be aware the surrounding area scores high on deprivation indices — buyers should factor that into lifestyle expectations and long-term resale prospects. The kitchen is compact and the flat’s overall size limits larger furniture; the EPC is available on request.
