| Comment | Firhill might tick your boxes, can find tenement 1-beds for around that, about 30 min walk to Queen St, big new shiny medical centre just opened on Garscube Rd, Ruchill Park/Kelvin Walkway for the dog, generally pretty quiet. Bits of Dennistoun might also be an option, though Duke St is sort of Glasgow's equivalent of Leith Walk.
I think otherwise your combo of price and distance is going to limit you to some pretty shitty areas - if somewhere that close to the centre is that cheap, it's not going to be much of an improvement on Leith. If you were to widen your 30 minute walk requirement (i.e. take advantage of local rail and subway to get to Queen St) your options would be much greater. |
