A two-bedroom, freehold flat of about 710 sq ft in Glen Urquhart, East Kilbride—priced for affordability at £70,000. The apartment sits in a 1960s/70s block with communal entry and benefits from gas central heating and double glazing, keeping running costs lower and rooms comfortable. Internal space includes a living room, fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms, bathroom with shower, and useful hall storage that could double as a small home workstation.
This home is best suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a low-entry purchase in a well-connected part of East Kilbride. Broadband speeds are reported fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working and tenant demand. The area offers plentiful local amenities—shops, cafés, leisure facilities and Calderglen Country Park are close by—and transport links to Glasgow are straightforward.
Buyers should note the building’s mid-20th-century concrete construction and flat roof typical of ex-local authority stock; communal areas and the exterior may need ongoing maintenance. The neighbourhood is classified as very deprived, which affects long-term resale prospects and may influence mortgage options or rental demand. EPC C and a cheap council tax band are positives, but the flat’s age and communal setting mean refurbishment may be required to modernise finishes and maximise value.
