Set on the first floor of a Victorian sandstone tenement, this two-bedroom freehold flat combines period character with practical living space. High ceilings, cornicing and a feature fireplace give the lounge a bright, airy feel, while built‑in wardrobes in the principal bedroom add useful storage. The apartment extends to approximately 829 sq ft and includes a well-kept rear garden — a rare find for this property type.
The property is presented with modern decor and double glazing, and benefits from gas central heating, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Transport links are strong: frequent local buses and nearby Paisley train stations offer easy access to Glasgow and surrounding areas. Council Tax Band C and an EPC rating of C provide some running-cost reassurance, and the property is freehold with a below-average service charge (reported £360).
There is clear refurbishment potential. The kitchen requires modernisation to meet contemporary expectations and some parts of the flat will benefit from general updating. The wider neighbourhood is classified as very deprived, which may affect resale timing and yields for investors; buyers should weigh this with the purchase price and the low service charge.
Recommended for a first-time buyer or purchaser looking to add value, this flat offers strong bones and period appeal alongside practical amenities. Viewings are advised to appreciate the size, garden and transport convenience in person.
