This first-floor two-bedroom flat sits in a traditional sandstone tenement on a popular East End street. The apartment is compact but well presented, with a bay-window lounge, two double bedrooms and a modern fitted kitchen. Gas central heating and double glazing are already in place, reducing immediate maintenance needs.
The location offers genuine convenience: local shops, primary and secondary schooling within a short walk, and frequent trains to Glasgow from Dumbarton East station. A fully enclosed communal drying green and shared storage add practical outdoor space. The block’s period character and solid stone exterior give the home enduring appeal.
Space is modest — the overall footprint is small and room sizes suit a first-time buyer, professional couple or buy-to-let. To maximise value, cosmetic updates or further kitchen/bathroom upgrades would be beneficial. Buyers should note the wider area records high deprivation levels, which may affect resale values and local services.
Freehold tenure, no flood risk and low council tax are practical positives for a buyer seeking affordable ongoing costs. This property offers a straightforward, low-entry route into the market or a rental opportunity with good transport links to Glasgow.
