2 bed flat for sale

Archerhill Road, Glasgow G13

A ground floor two bedroom cottage flat on Archerhill Road in Knightswood, with its own front door, a bright bay-windowed living room, two double bedrooms, a driveway and a large rear garden. Knightswood Park, Great Western Road and Anniesland station are all close by, and with some upgrading this will make a fantastic first home or investment.

Cottage flats like this are a Knightswood favourite for good reason. You get the feel of a house, with your own front door and gardens front and back, at a price that makes them one of the best value ways onto the Glasgow ladder. This one has had the same owner for 37 years and is now ready for its next owners. To the front there is a lawned garden and a driveway to the side, and inside a small porch leads into a long hallway with wood-effect flooring that links every room. The living room sits at the front of the house and is the standout space, with a traditional bay window pulling in plenty of light and a feature fireplace with an electric fire giving the room a focal point. A door from the living room takes you through to the kitchen, which is fitted with white units, wood-effect worktops and a freestanding gas cooker with double oven, with room for a fridge freezer and a washing machine. A back door from the kitchen opens straight out to the garden for easy access. There are two double bedrooms, one to the front and one to the rear, and both have their own built-in cupboard for storage. The bathroom has a bath, wash hand basin and WC, with tiled walls and a window for natural light. The rear garden is a real highlight and much bigger than you might expect, laid mainly to lawn with a paved seating area right outside the back door and mature trees beyond, giving you plenty of space to garden, play or relax on a summer evening. Gas central heating runs from a boiler fitted in 2024, most of the windows are double glazed, and the flat is in a solid position for someone to come in and refresh it to their own taste, whether that means a new kitchen and bathroom or simply fresh paint and carpets.

Knightswood is one of Glasgow's best known residential areas, with wide streets, plenty of green space and a strong community feel. Knightswood Park is right on the doorstep, with its pond, open grass and nine hole golf course, so there is always somewhere for a walk, a kickabout or a round with friends. Local shops and everyday essentials are close at hand, and Great Western Road puts supermarkets, cafes and restaurants within a few minutes' drive. For commuters, Anniesland and Westerton stations offer quick trains into the city centre, regular buses run along the main roads, and the Clyde Tunnel and Glasgow's motorway network are easily reached. Cottage flats with gardens this size don't hang around for long in Knightswood, so book your viewing early.
