Unusually large rear garden for a flat, fenced and private
Good lounge size; compact kitchen and bathroom

Mixed-use building with ground-floor commercial units
Area classed very deprived; outer-city hardship nearby

This chain-free two-bedroom upper flat offers compact, practical living with an unusually generous rear garden for a flat. The accommodation includes an entrance hallway, a spacious lounge, fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and a modern bathroom — ready to move into with floor coverings, blinds and some white goods included. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit home working and streaming.
The property sits above a small commercial frontage in a mixed-use parade, presenting dual appeal: a straightforward home for a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let opportunity for an investor. On-street and nearby off-street parking makes access easy, and road links to Edinburgh and Glasgow suit commuters. The garden and ample parking are stand-out features that increase everyday convenience and future rental potential.
Be aware the building is in an area classed as very deprived with outer-city hardship and primary-sector local employment. The commercial ground floor shows roller shutters and may require refurbishment or could be vacant; this influences noise, footfall and potential immediate rental income from the lower unit. Overall footprint is modest (c.593 sq ft) so space is practical rather than generous.
For buyers seeking a low-entry purchase with near-term improvement potential, this property offers scope: light refurbishment could raise comfort and rental value, while the garden and commuter links provide genuine lifestyle advantages. Buyers should factor in the mixed-use nature and wider area conditions when assessing long-term plans.
