A long-established six-bedroom boutique guest house on Dalbeattie High Street, The Art Bank occupies a prominent Victorian stone corner property with tall windows, high ceilings and period mouldings. The freehold building (approx. 1,716 sq ft) is laid out over multiple storeys and currently trades as serviced accommodation, offering an immediate income opportunity for a purchaser wishing to continue the use.
Internally the property presents well for its age with individually decorated bedrooms, a spacious dining room, newly fitted kitchen, integrated garage and good storage. Two bedrooms and a four-piece bathroom sit on the top floor with kitchenette facilities, making the upper floors flexible for guest suites or self-contained accommodation.
The site sits on a larger-than-average plot in the town centre, close to local amenities and leisure facilities, and benefits from excellent mobile signal and no flood risk. Important practical points: broadband speeds are average, the area is classified as very deprived which may affect market demand, and any change of use or major reconfiguration will require the correct consents. Buyers should allow for ongoing maintenance and possible refurbishment to suit a new operator or residential conversion.
This property suits investors or operators seeking an established guest house with scope to optimise revenue, or a purchaser looking to convert into a family home or specialist accommodation subject to planning. The combination of period character, central location and freehold title provides clear potential, balanced by the need to confirm planning status and factor in local market conditions.
