This top-floor, three-bedroom flat in the heart of Dundee city centre offers clear rental and resale potential. At 710 sq ft and offered at £115,000 against an HR value of £140,000, the property is competitively priced for investors or buyers seeking city-centre living close to universities and transport links.
The accommodation includes a spacious sitting room, dining kitchen with integrated appliances, three double bedrooms and a shower room. The flat is accessed via a communal stair and benefits from included fixtures, fittings and appliances. Broadband potential is strong (up to 1000 Mbps) and mobile coverage is excellent, supporting modern tenant demands.
Notable drawbacks are factual and material: heating is electric panel heaters (higher running costs than gas), windows are a mixture of single and double glazing, and the apartment is on the top floor with stair access only. The building sits in a very deprived area and the neighbourhood has a strong student and commuter profile, which can mean transient tenants and potential for street noise. On-street permit parking only; no private parking.
Overall this flat is suited to buy-to-let purchasers, multi-occupancy or first-time buyers prepared to accept higher running costs and occasional urban noise in exchange for central location and refurbishment upside. No warranties are provided; buyers should carry out their own inspections and satisfy themselves on condition and running costs.
