Buying in Dundee

There’s certainly plenty to enjoy in Dundee, which was the first UK city to win UNESCO City of Design status. It has also received £1 billion worth of major regeneration investment, aimed at injecting culture and vibrancy back into the city. The Victoria and Albert Museum draws people from all over the country, whilst the city’s waterfront is enjoying an overhaul. All this makes it a fantastic place to invest in property.

Living in Dundee
Dundee has a population of around 150,000, of whom one in ten are students. Many surrounding villages are now considered to be suburbs of the city.
Broughty Ferry is a pretty seaside town located east of the city that is popular with families for its period homes, new build properties and waterfront apartments. Many young people choose to live in Dundee’s West End as the university campus is located there, but it’s full of beautiful Edwardian family homes that are ideal for families too.
The average house price in Dundee is around £150,000 — well under the national average — and its proximity to local beauty spots as well as Scotland’s two major cities make it the perfect place to settle down.
