Want to buy a home but don’t have a huge budget?
Worry not, there are plenty of good value places in Tayside.
Here are five properties under £90k.
Aberfeldy
Highland Perthshire property often goes for astronomical prices. And no wonder. With some of Scotland’s finest scenery on the doorstep it’s a magical place.
That makes this one-bedroom flat in Aberfeldy something of a bargain. On Market Street, it’s a two minute walk from the centre of Aberfeldy and not much farther to the banks of the River Tay.
Internally it could do with a bit of modernisation but there’s double glazing and gas central heating so the most expensive items are taken care of.
At o/o £90,000 it’s good value for money. It would make a fantastic holiday let or weekend bolthole.
Kirriemuir
In Kirriemuir our budget stretches to this fantastic terraced cottage.
Newly renovated, it has a living room/kitchen, bedroom with en suite shower room, and a sun porch.
There’s also a garage and gardens. The cottage is in the suburb of Southmuir, a short distance from Kirriemuir town centre and in easy reach of the Angus Glens.
There are countryside walks right on the doorstep.
It’s on sale for offers over £90,000.
Dundee
This upper flat in Dundee is on a quiet street within easy reach of the Kingsway. Newly upgraded it benefits from a secure entry system.
A hallway has storage and a space for workstation. The southwest facing living room captures the sun all afternoon and evening.
There is a spacious bedroom, an new bathroom and a modern kitchen. Gas central heating and double glazing make it an economical flat to run.
Best of all, it’s on sale for just £80,000.
Forfar
Properties in Forfar don’t come much more central than this one. The duplex apartment is located on the High Street, in front of the town’s clocktower.
Spread over the first and second floors of a C-listed building it also has excellent views to the Angus countryside.
At first floor level there’s a living room, kitchen, shower room and bedroom. The second bedroom is on the attic level and enjoys a fantastic outlook.
The flat is currently tenanted with a rental income of £575pcm and would make a good investment property.
Kirkton of Menmuir
Finally, how about an entire church for just £90,000. That’s the asking price for this church in Kirkton of Menmuir, near Brechin.
Planning permission has been granted for its conversion into a four-bedroom house with three en-suite bathrooms.
Of course £90,000 only buys the building itself. You’ll need a much larger budget to carry out the conversion.
But if you’re handy and able to do some of the work yourself you could end up with an amazing home for a bargain price.
Services are in place and solar panels have been fitted to the roof.
