This first-floor, two-bedroom flat on Holburn Street offers a low-entry purchase in a popular student and commuter area of Aberdeen. The apartment is compact (approximately 484 sq ft) but well-presented with a replaced walk-in shower room, modern fitted galley kitchen, double glazing and central heating—features that reduce immediate upkeep for a new owner.
The property is currently rented (tenant in situ) and has been independently valued at £90,000 by an RICS surveyor, while the asking price is listed at £55,000—indicating potential upside for investors. Communal gardens, security entry and good broadband and mobile signals add practical appeal for both tenants and owner-occupiers.
Buyers should note the flat’s small overall size and its location in an area classed as deprived and popular with students, which can mean higher tenant turnover and local noise. The vendor may sell the property “as seen,” and immediate vacant possession is not guaranteed while a tenant remains in place. Prospective purchasers should review the home report and arrange inspections and tenancy details before committing.
This apartment suits investors seeking an affordable buy-to-let with rental demand, or first-time buyers wanting a compact starter home close to amenities and transport links. The low council tax band A keeps running costs down, but anyone prioritising space or long-term quiet living should consider the size and neighbourhood character carefully.
