Affordable one-bedroom top-floor flat in central Helensburgh, ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
Top-floor one-bedroom flat with elevated privacy
Set on the top floor of a traditional sandstone tenement, this compact one-bedroom flat offers an affordable entry into Helensburgh’s attractive town centre. The elevated position brings privacy and pleasant outlooks while retaining easy walking access to shops, transport links and the waterfront.
Internally the layout is efficient: a bright lounge with a kitchenette, a generous double bedroom and a shower room. Period details such as cornicing and a painted brick fireplace surround give character, while modern comforts include double glazing and gas central heating. At about 376 sqft the apartment is small but straightforward to run and low maintenance.
Important considerations: the property has an EPC rating of D and sits within an area recorded as very deprived, which may affect resale dynamics. The kitchenette is compact and communal stair access serves nine flats, so communal maintenance and shared stair upkeep are factors to clarify. This freehold flat suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-cost, lettable city-centre pied-à-terre, but purchasers should allow for modest upgrading to maximise long-term value.
