David Street is one of Broughty Ferry's quieter addresses, a dead-end lane where the traffic stops well short of the water. The beach is fifty yards away, the harbour a short walk, and the Ship Inn sits at the end of the road, whether that's a drink at the end of the day or a family dinner. Broughty Castle and the walk along the front are close enough to become part of the weekend rather than a special trip, and the shops, restaurants and train station of the Ferry are all within easy reach, the station itself useful for the commute into Dundee.

Flat 9 is a maisonette arranged over two floors, with a living room that looks out towards the water, the window seats are a good spot to watch the light change over it. A fitted kitchen, modern bathroom and ample cupboard space complete the ground floor, and the flat is gas centrally heated and double glazed throughout.

Upstairs, two double bedrooms share the top floor, the larger set into the roof with a built in wardrobe and skylight that frames nothing but sky, and there is further built-in storage within the main bedroom and landing. The second bedroom, in its own dormer, looks over David Street towards the water and castle.

It's easy to picture this two ways, a first home or a place to keep back for weekends by the water.

Outside, residents share use of a communal courtyard, and washhouse. The property itself owning a private shed. and parking on David Street and the surrounding streets is unrestricted.

David Street runs down to the water, and Flat 9 sits close enough to make the most of it.
