Summary - St Peters RC Church, 52 Howathshaw Road, Dumbarton, G82 3DR G82 3DR
1 bed 1 bath Commercial Property
Rare auction opportunity with strong conversion upside and nearby sale comparables.
Large open internal space with high ecclesiastical ceilings
A substantial former church offering a large, flexible internal space and high ceilings — a blank canvas for redevelopment. The building’s brutalist character and prominent brick façade provide distinctive curb appeal for a creative commercial conversion.
Positioned for investors and developers, this lot will be sold at auction and is offered at a competitive guide price. Comparable nearby sales indicate demand for converted uses; short-stay accommodation in the area is achieving upwards of £140 per night, suggesting attractive income potential if permissions are obtained.
Important practical points are clear: no planning consents are in place, the tenure is unknown, and the property requires renovation and conversion works. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived, which can affect lettings and resale timing — factor this into yield and exit assumptions. Broadband is fast and mobile signal average.
This is a high-upside, higher-risk commercial development opportunity. It will suit an investor or developer comfortable managing planning applications, refurbishment budgets, and the challenges of an auction purchase.
