The property is a 2-bedroom flat located on Woodford Street in Glasgow’s Langside area. The flat is in need of modernisation, as evidenced by the images showing worn flooring, outdated kitchen units, and a bathroom requiring updates. The property benefits from a small shared garden area.

Considering the condition of the property, a significant amount of renovation work is required. This includes the kitchen, bathroom, and general cosmetic improvements throughout. The presence of original features such as wood flooring and high ceilings suggests the potential to create a charming home, but the current state detracts from its value.

The location in Langside is generally considered desirable, with relatively easy access to public transport via nearby train stations (Pollokshaws East, Langside, Crossmyloof, Shawlands, and Maxwell Park are all within a reasonable distance). However, the absence of nearby schools in the provided data prevents a full assessment of the location’s family-friendliness.

The list price of £165,000 is slightly below the average price of £177,900 for the area. However, given the property’s condition and smaller size (590 sqft compared to the average of 840 sqft), the price may reflect the necessary renovations. The average price per square foot in the area is £211, while this property’s price per square foot is higher. This suggests that the price may be slightly inflated considering the significant renovation needed, but it’s within the range of other properties in the immediate area.

The property’s lack of a private garden is a notable drawback, although the shared garden area provides some outdoor space. Nearby properties have similar pricing, but the extent of their renovations is unknown, making direct comparison difficult.

Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
