Summary - AULDKIRK, CHURCH STREET, NEWTON STEWART, PORT WILLIAM DG8 9QJ
3 bed 2 bath Mixed Use
Partially converted coastal church with planning for two homes, ideal for builders and investors.
Full planning permission for two dwellings (Ref: 02/P/1/0097)
Auldkirk is a partially converted Gothic Revival church offering a rare development opportunity in coastal Port William. Part of the building is already finished as a three-bedroom home with high ceilings and original stonework; the remaining wing is undeveloped and included in full planning permission for conversion into two residential dwellings (Ref: 02/P/1/0097). The site totals about 1,587 sq ft and sits on freehold tenure.
This project suits a builder, investor or experienced renovator seeking high earning potential from a sympathetic restoration and split into two homes. The completed section provides immediate occupancy or rental income while the unfinished wing offers scope to follow the approved plans or adapt designs (subject to permissions). Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the property is in a desirable coastal village with sea and countryside access.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the property needs renovation, the wider area is recorded as very deprived, and sale will proceed at auction — purchasers may pay an auction buyer’s premium (typical example 3.6% subject to minimum). No tests of services have been carried out; costs to complete the undeveloped wing and any remedial works are a likely additional outlay. Viewing and professional surveys are advised before bidding.
