GLASGOW'S cheapest flat has gone on the market - with a price tag of just £1500.
Estate agents admit the one-bedroom flat in Caldarvan Street, Hamiltonhill,
requires "complete upgrading and refurbishment".
But coming with the news the Bank of England has cut interest rates for the first
time in two years, the modern first-floor property could still be a real bargain.
As well as having a spacious lounge, galley kitchen and good-sized bedroom,
football fans may be attracted by the location - it's just yards away from Partick
Thistle's Firhill ground.
It's also close to the shops, bars and restaurants of the West End, is within walking
distance of the city centre and has a small patch of front garden.
However, estate agents Allen and Harris admit whoever buys the flat, on the market
for offers over £1500, will face considerable work.
All the windows are boarded up, while the other five homes in the block
are unoccupied.
The schedule for the property states: "The property is sold as seen and has been
reflected in the initial asking price."
Property experts believe the flat, which was a repossession, could fetch at least £3000,
and is likely to attract a number of buy-to-let investors.
The average house price for homes in Glasgow is £134,662.
