About
***GOING TO ONLINE AUCTION*** Brighton & Beck are pleased to present to auction this one-bedroom traditional flat located on Dumbarton Road in the heart of Glasgow’s West End, just moments from the bottom of Byres Road.
The property forms part of a traditional sandstone tenement building and offers excellent potential for investors, developers and buyers seeking a full refurbishment project in a prime, high-demand location.
Internally, the accommodation currently comprises entrance hallway, living room, bedroom, kitchen/dining and bathroom.
The flat requires a full programme of refurbishment throughout, with the current condition reflected in the guide price, creating a strong opportunity for a purchaser to add value through renovation.
Subject to the necessary planning, building warrant and consents, there may be scope to reconfigure the internal layout to create a two-bedroom apartment, potentially by forming an open-plan kitchen/living area and repurposing the existing kitchen space.
This could significantly improve the property’s rental appeal and end value once fully refurbished.
The property is likely to appeal to cash buyers, builders, investors and developers looking for a project in a proven West End location.
Given the strength of demand locally, the flat may be suitable for resale, long-term rental, student rental or serviced accommodation use, subject to any required permissions and licensing.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a property requiring full modernisation in one of Glasgow’s most desirable and consistently popular locations.
Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the potential on offer.
Dumbarton Road is superbly positioned in the heart of Glasgow’s West End, within the ever-popular Partick area and just moments from the foot of Byres Road.
The area o ers an excellent mix of shops, cafés, bars, restaurants and everyday amenities, with Byres Road, Ashton Lane, Kelvingrove Park and the University of Glasgow all easily accessible.
Partick is one of Glasgow’s best-connected neighbourhoods, with nearby subway, rail and bus links providing quick access across the city and beyond.
The location continues to attract strong demand from students, professionals, owner-occupiers and investors, making it a highly desirable setting for long-term rental, serviced accommodation or resale following refurbishment, subject to any required consents.
