Chain free and freehold, newly renovated and move-in ready
Compact one-bedroom layout — approx. 334 sq ft (small overall size)
Modern fitted kitchen with integrated hob and oven

Private loft space and external lockable bike storage included
On-street parking only; no allocated parking spaces

Located in a very deprived area; consider resale/rental implications
This newly renovated one-bedroom flat on Glenalmond offers a low-maintenance, move-in-ready option for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The open-plan living area and modern kitchen create a bright, functional space despite the compact footprint. East-facing communal garden and private loft storage add practical extras often missing at this price point.
Practical strengths include integrated kitchen appliances, updated bathroom, external bike storage, and a generous walk-in cupboard off the hall. The property is freehold and chain-free, with excellent road links to Edinburgh and Glasgow via the M8 — useful for commuters. On-street parking is generally plentiful, and council tax is very cheap, helping running costs stay low.
Buyers should be clear about limitations: the overall accommodation is small (approx. 334 sq ft) and broadband speeds are slow, which may be important for home workers. There is no allocated parking and the property sits in a locally very deprived area; these factors may affect long-term resale or rental yields. The communal garden faces east, catching morning sun but offering limited private outdoor space.
Overall this flat suits someone seeking an affordable, modern starter home or an investor wanting a low-upkeep flat with immediate rental potential. It’s been fully refurbished and offers straightforward, economical living; buyers wanting larger rooms, faster broadband, or private parking should factor those preferences into their viewing decision.
