This newly renovated one-bedroom ground-floor flat offers 517 sq ft of practical living in the heart of Main Street, East Kilbride. Set within a refurbished mid-20th-century block, the apartment is offered freehold and arranged on the level, making access simple and step-free. Neutral finishes and double glazing provide a move-in-ready base for a first-time buyer or investor.
The accommodation includes a dual-aspect lounge that brings good natural light, a compact but modern kitchen with space for white goods, a double bedroom with built-in storage, and a three-piece bathroom. Broadband speeds are reported as fast and mobile signal excellent, supporting home working or strong rental appeal.
Buyers should note the property uses electric heating, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives, and room sizes are small-to-medium. The wider neighbourhood is classified as very deprived; this may affect long-term resale values and should be considered by purchasers and landlords. There is no flood risk and the block has been refurbished, but the flat’s period mid-20th-century construction means some external finishes are basic.
At £65,000 this flat represents an affordable entry to ownership in central village surroundings, close to local shops, community facilities and transport links. It suits a first-time buyer seeking a low-maintenance starter home or an investor looking for an economical let in a central location, provided they factor in running costs and local market dynamics.
