This compact second-floor flat offers a modern, move-in-ready one-bedroom home a short commute from Aberdeen city centre. The open-plan living room and sleek kitchen are bright and airy, with high ceilings to the front and contemporary finishes throughout. Included appliances, fitted bedroom storage and gas central heating keep running costs straightforward for a small household or first-time buyer.
Externally the building provides free on-street parking to the front, a tidy communal garden to the rear (one-sixth is exclusively owned in title but currently shared), an exclusive shed for bike storage, and a communal wash house. A gardener attends the grounds for a modest charge of £15 per month. Service charges are below average at £180 and council tax is very cheap, which supports lower ongoing costs.
Important facts and limitations: the flat is small (around 39 sqm / 420 sq ft) and best suited to a single occupant or couple. The EPC is rated D, and the property sits in an area with higher measured deprivation — buyers should consider resale and rental demand in that context. The communal ownership arrangements for the garden are mixed and should be confirmed legally.
Overall, the property is a pragmatic, cost-conscious option for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance city-edge home with good transport links, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Early viewing is recommended to judge the compact layout and communal arrangements in person.
