Enjoying favoured location opposite “South Inch” Park, very convenient walking distance of the town centre, this rarely available 1 Bedroom Conversion occupies ground left position within a most appealing Traditional Sandstone Detached Villa (comprising 2 conversions on the ground floor whilst the upper level is the 3rd property).
The property has been a comfortable home to its owner over many years and naturally retains considerable character, in particular the substantial bay windowed lounge with its “low drop” windows providing elevated views towards the park. In addition it benefits from its own private main door entrance hidden to the rear (left) of the property with a private garden share.
Of broad interest including the 1st-time Buyer, perhaps those wishing to retire, those seeking a “bolthole” for fleeting visits or perhaps the buy-to-let/air-bnb investor. It is fair to say the Home Report/Mortgage Valuation of £100,000 does reflect internal upgrading is required, however the competitive price allows scope for the successful purchaser to modernise to their own spec’/budget. There is perhaps development potential to reconfigure the layout internally, subject to required planning permission etc.
The accommodation presently comprises, entrance porch/vestibule to the rear leading into a “Galley Style” kitchen, thereafter a small central hallway provides access to a separate rear facing bedroom, the bathroom to the side and the aforementioned bay windowed lounge to the front.
The specification includes both electric heating & double glazing. EPC – F. A private garden share is provided. Communal maintenance costs are shared between the 3 Owners – apportioned as per the title conditions (details to be confirmed). On-street parking is available in nearby streets – subject to any local authority regulations.
Perth is a historic city located in central Scotland, on the banks of the River Tay, approx’ 45 miles north of Edinburgh & 58 miles from Glasgow. Fondly referred to as “The Fair City”, a nickname that comes from Sir Walter Scott’s 1828 novel The Fair Maid of Perth. There are a wide variety of amenities whilst public transport is easily available. Kings Place is within walking distance of the town centre whilst the park opposite invites one to easily enjoy the outdoors without having to travel by car. Perth’s central position with the A9/A90/M90 converging on the outskirts means it is a gateway to all 4 compass points – south to Stirling/Edinburgh & Glasgow, east to Dundee and then north east towards Lecht Ski Centre/Braemar/Banchory/Aberdeen & beyond or travel to the West of Scotland/Inverness & The Highlands – it truly is a convenient “Gateway” for those seeking landscape/outdoor pursuits beyond Perth.
Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY Estate Agents comments…
“ In my view …an excellent opportunity to acquire a Charming Conversion at a very competitive price, providing the successful purchaser a rare opportunity to create their own Special Home which forms part of an elegant Traditional Detached Villa ….rather than perhaps somewhat bland/modern alternatives available at a similar price.
Imagine how it will look when re-styled/modernised ….and as you open the door and settle down, it is your New Home …a home with real character. “
