Freehold traded restaurant with large owner’s flat in the heart of Callander..
Prominent Victorian freehold building on Callander Main Street
Seats c.60 across main room and separate 20-seat private area
Fully equipped commercial kitchen and bar servery included
Large private four-bedroom owner’s flat with rear parking included
Strong summer tourist footfall; loyal local customer base year-round
Energy Performance Rating G — likely needs efficiency improvements
On-street parking only for customers; private parking limited to flat
Seasonal trade and wider area classed as very deprived
This freehold restaurant occupies a prominent Victorian townhouse on Callander’s Main Street, within Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park. The trading space seats around 60 across two rooms, has a fully equipped commercial kitchen, bar servery and a cosy open-flame fireplace; fixtures and fittings are included. An extensive, privately accessed four-bedroom owner’s flat (private parking to rear) is sold with the business, providing genuine lifestyle flexibility or rental potential.
The business has operated successfully for 20+ years and benefits from strong tourist footfall in summer plus a loyal local customer base. Staff transfer under TUPE and trading accounts will be made available after viewing. There is clear upside for a hands-on owner or investor: extended opening hours, later dinners or broadened catering could materially increase turnover.
Important negatives are straightforward: the property carries an Energy Rating G, broadband speeds are only average, and on-street parking is first-come, first-served (private parking only for the flat). The wider area is classified as very deprived / ageing urban communities, and trade is seasonal due to the town’s visitor profile. Any alternative use (for example serviced apartments) would require planning consent.
This is a rare freehold hospitality opportunity combining a trading restaurant with substantial owner accommodation in a prime tourist route location. It suits an owner-operator, couple, or investor seeking a traded business with immediate accommodation and potential to grow income by extending service and events.
