Open-plan living room and modern fitted kitchen; bright natural light
Residents' off-street parking (shared with Waitrose and Hilton)

1960s concrete/brutalist building — expect typical communal maintenance
Opportunity to add value by modernising kitchen and storage
This top-floor one-bedroom apartment sits on Byres Road in Glasgow’s sought-after West End, offering direct access to shops, cafes, transport and city amenities. The flat is bright and contemporary with an open-plan living/kitchen, a private balcony with West End views, and access to residents’ off-street parking shared with nearby commercial premises. Its compact layout and neutral finishes make it suitable for rental use or compact city living.
Important practical points are straightforward: the property is leasehold and is advertised as not suitable for standard mortgage lending, limiting purchase options to cash buyers or specialist lenders. The building is a mid-20th-century concrete/brutalist structure set on a busy street, so expect typical city-centre noise and no private outdoor garden or communal green space.
The apartment will appeal to investors, students or professionals seeking a turn-key city base close to University and transport links. There is potential to increase value through modest modernisation of kitchen and storage solutions. Service arrangements and lease details should be checked prior to offer, as communal maintenance and lease length will materially affect long-term costs.
Overall, this is a convenient, well-presented West End flat that trades on location and immediate rental appeal rather than outdoor space or period charm. Buyers who prioritise central convenience and cash purchase options will find this a practical, easy-to-manage investment or pied-à-terre.
