Located in a very deprived neighbourhood; may affect long-term value
Set on the top floor of a mid-century block on the edge of Shawlands, this two-bedroom flat offers a compact, practical home with good transport links. The bright lounge flows to a semi-open kitchen and the two bedrooms include built-in wardrobes — suitable for a first home or buy-to-let. Gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of C give reasonable running costs.
The building sits on a sought-after street with immediate access to shops, supermarkets including Lidl, cafes and both Pollokshaws East and West stations for direct city-centre journeys. Residents benefit from well‑kept communal grounds and a shared drying room off the kitchen (access limited to only two flats in the close).
Rooms are small-to-medium in scale, reflecting the apartment’s 678 sq ft footprint; the layout is practical but not generous. The property is freehold and has good mobile and broadband connectivity. Buyers should note the local area is classified as very deprived with a hard‑pressed resident profile — this may affect local services and long‑term neighbourhood uplift.
Overall this flat suits a first-time buyer seeking affordable entry into Glasgow with strong commuter links, or an investor looking for a straightforward rental proposition. It presents scope for modest cosmetic improvement rather than major structural works.
