Large floored loft (with power) and useful cellar storage

Wider area shows high deprivation despite central town location
Set in the centre of Strathaven, this newly renovated two-bedroom freehold flat offers smart, move-in-ready accommodation for first-time buyers seeking a compact, low-maintenance home. The open-plan living/kitchen, modern bathroom and upgraded heating make daily life comfortable from day one. Bright rooms, double glazing, and a large floored loft with power extend usable space beyond the main 565 sq ft footprint.
Practical storage is strong for an apartment: a cellar and a sizable utility cupboard housing washer, dryer and the modern gas boiler add useful functionality. The layout includes two reception rooms (one previously used as a third bedroom), giving flexibility for a home office or guest space. Mobile signal is excellent and broadband speeds are fast — good for remote work and streaming.
Buyers should note the wider neighbourhood sits in an area of higher deprivation, which can affect local services and long-term resale comparables. The property is small overall and shares an entrance with one other flat, which may limit privacy or mean shared maintenance arrangements. Despite this, the flat has previously achieved rental yields exceeding 7%, so it also suits investors comfortable with the local market.
Overall this is a well-presented, central apartment that delivers practical living, strong connectivity and attic/cellar storage. It’s ideal for a first-time buyer wanting a ready-to-live-in home with future rental potential, provided you’re comfortable with the local area profile and compact overall size.
