Summary - 28, SIME PLACE, GALASHIELS TD1 1ST
1 bed 1 bath Ground Flat
Versatile one-bedroom flat with HMO potential, move-in ready and central for students and commuters.
Ground-floor one-bedroom with en-suite and adjoining shower room off lounge
A well-presented ground-floor flat in a traditional stone townhouse, recently renovated and offered freehold. The current layout is a spacious one-bedroom with en-suite, but it was previously configured as a two-bedroom HMO-style unit — an easy conversion for investors targeting the student market or buyers wanting flexible accommodation.
Rooms are neutrally finished with contemporary fixtures, laminate floors and modern radiators. Practical features include a galley kitchen with good storage, two separate shower rooms, and useful built-in storage throughout. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, making the flat well-suited to students and professionals working from home.
The property sits in a central, amenity-rich area close to shops, transport and services, with communal garden access and off-street parking directly outside. Drawbacks to note: there is no private garden, the flat is modest in size (approximately 575 sq ft), and the wider area is classified as very deprived — factors that will influence long-term rental yields and resale profiles.
Overall this is a practical, move-in-ready city flat that offers immediate occupation or straightforward reinstatement to a two-bedroom student let. Buyers seeking low running costs (very cheap council tax) and flexible use will find clear value, while purchasers prioritising private outdoor space or a quieter neighbourhood should consider the location constraints.
