Bright, compact and well-presented, this top-floor one-bedroom flat suits a first-time buyer or city professional seeking a low-maintenance city base. Set within a traditional Victorian tenement on Dickson Street, the apartment benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and an open-plan lounge/kitchen that makes efficient use of its footprint. Appliances (oven, hob, hood, fridge, washing machine) are included, and furniture can be left if desired.
At approximately 377 sq ft the layout is compact: a double bedroom, shower room and useful hallway storage make it comfortable for single occupancy or a couple. The property has a C EPC, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical advantages for working from home. Externally there is a shared rear garden for occasional outdoor use; a garage is noted but buyers should verify availability and tenure.
Important practical points: the flat is small and on the top (third) floor, so access is by stairs only. Tenure information is not provided and should be confirmed before purchase. The immediate area is a lively, cosmopolitan student and commuter neighbourhood with many cafes, bars and transport links — great for convenience but potentially noisy and busy at times. The local area is described as very deprived, which may affect long-term values and lending conditions for some buyers.
Overall this is an economical, city-centre starter home with clear upside for buyers who prioritise location, low running costs and a ready-to-move-in interior. Early viewing is recommended to assess size and layout in person and to confirm tenure and any garage arrangements.
