366 sq ft total — best for single occupants or couples

Some kitchen appliances dated; potential for modernisation
Located in a very deprived area — consider long-term trends
Set on the second floor of a red sandstone tenement, this one-bedroom flat offers compact, well-presented living in the heart of Govanhill. High ceilings and large sash windows bring period character to the main rooms, while a contemporary kitchen and gas central heating make the property comfortable from day one.
At 366 sq ft the apartment is small but efficiently laid out with reception hall and storage cupboard, open-plan lounge/kitchen, bathroom with shower over bath, and a generous double bedroom. The communal close is well kept and the building benefits from a maintained rear garden and secure entry.
The location is a major draw: Queens Park rail station is about 0.2 miles away and frequent buses run along Victoria Road. Local amenities are abundant, from bakeries and cafes to supermarkets and eateries, making this an easy, walkable base for students, commuters or a first-time buyer seeking rental potential.
Notable drawbacks are the compact overall size and some dated kitchen appliances, which may require updating. The surrounding area scores high on deprivation metrics, so buyers should consider long-term neighbourhood trends. EPC rating C and freehold tenure are practical positives for cost and ownership clarity.
