Affordable one-bedroom sandstone flat with bay window and excellent storage, ideal first purchase.
Small one-bedroom flat, 374 sq ft
Compact and characterful, this one-bedroom second-floor flat sits in a traditional red sandstone tenement on Shettleston Road. At 374 sq ft it makes a manageable, low-cost home with a bright front lounge framed by an Edwardian bay window and generous built-in storage off the L-shaped hallway. Gas central heating, double glazing and secure door entry mean practical running costs and everyday comfort.
The layout suits a first-time buyer or couple seeking an affordable entry to ownership: a large double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, a galley kitchen with space for a freestanding cooker, and a modern three-piece bathroom with shower-over-bath. Communal garden grounds at the rear and nearby amenities — shops, bus links and an Aldi — add convenience.
Be realistic about the scale and local context. At 374 sq ft this is a small flat best for single occupancy or those willing to live compactly. The property is in a very deprived area which may affect long-term capital growth; the EPC is a D and cosmetic updating could be desired. That said, the freehold tenure, cheap council tax, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband make it a practical, low-cost purchase with potential to personalise.
For buyers prioritising affordability and period character over space, this flat provides an accessible route to ownership in a well-connected, traditional tenement building. Investors should factor local market conditions and the small floor area into rental projections.
