A bright, newly redecorated one-bedroom top-floor flat in a blonde sandstone tenement, offered at an entry-level price. The accommodation benefits from high Victorian ceilings, large sash-style windows that flood rooms with light, and recently fitted double glazing and gas central heating. At 333 sq ft the footprint is compact but well arranged for single occupancy or a rental let.
Practical features include a fitted kitchen with appliances, a partially tiled shower room and an entrance hallway with storage. The building has a secure entry system and a communal rear drying green. From the front there are pleasant outlooks towards Cardwell Bay and Lyle Hill. EPC rating C and freehold tenure are positive ownership details for buyers and investors.
Buyers should note material constraints: the overall size is small (333 sq ft) and the flat is on the top floor, reached via shared communal stairs—there is no private garden and on-street parking is the norm. Broadband speeds are average and the property sits in an area recorded as very deprived, which can affect resale and rental demand. These factors temper its strong value-for-money position but do not negate immediate affordability.
This property suits a first-time buyer seeking a low-cost entry into the market or a landlord targeting a town-centre buy-to-let. With minimal further updating required, it offers a straightforward, low-maintenance home or an attainable rental investment in central Gourock, close to shops, transport and the ferry terminal.
