Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
Excellent business opportunity to purchase Dunoon Free Church located in the heart of Argyll Street Dunoon.

The church extends over two floors in a two storey building with pitched slated roof . The church was built in 1828 but is not listed.
Internally, it comprises bright entrance, spacious open hall with internal canopy ceiling, various areas of storage, meeting room, male, female/disabled toilets and kitchen.
Upper floor gives access to mezzanine/balcony level (restricted access).

There is a single storey property attached to the church with own entrance. Subject to consent, this could be used for retail or office purposes. W.C. and wash hand basin, kitchen. Kitchen comprises Stainless steel sink and drainer. Wood effect unit with complementary work surface. Two storage heaters and two strip lights.

The Argyll Street site could be used as a creche, day nursery or day centre; for education; for display of art or as a museum or library; or simply as a public hall. Subject to consent to change its use it has potential for retail, or even short-term holiday accommodation. Some of the pews at lower and upper lever remain and are included in the price.

Within this sale are grounds to the rear of the church which extend to Royal Crescent where vehicle access could be gained.
Planning consent for a detached house was obtained in 2006 but lapsed. Consideration will be given to splitting the site into church and house plot with the Argyll Street site at £80,000 and the house plot £60,000.
Combined site has superb potential for a variety of uses, subject to the necessary consents being agreed.

Dunoon is the gateway to the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park and can easily be described as having some of the most dramatic and picturesque scenery in the west of Scotland.

The area is renowned for its spectacular scenery and there are near endless walks, hill climbs and quiet country roads offering wonderful rambling and cycling country. The Bishops Glen walk is close by and allows for a pleasant walk around the local beauty spot of the Bishop's Glen reservoir.

*Please note that no viewings can be made on upper floor owing to safety concerns*
