A distinctive Grade B listed former library occupying 2,377 sq ft on Castlegate, Jedburgh’s main thoroughfare. The building retains original period features — high arched windows, tall ceilings and a grand skylight — creating a bright, characterful interior suited to creative commercial, community or mixed-use conversion (subject to planning). Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband support modern workspace or visitor-focused uses.
The property offers clear redevelopment potential for an investor or developer seeking a prominent town-centre asset with tourist appeal, sitting a short walk from Jedburgh Abbey and local cafés. The generous open-plan ground floor plus a large first-floor meeting room and ancillary offices provide flexible space for retail, leisure, office or residential conversion proposals, subject to consents.
Buyers should note material constraints: the building’s listed status will complicate works and likely require specialist listed-building consent and conservation input. Planning will be required for change of use or substantial alteration. Tenure is currently unknown and the area is recorded as very deprived, which may affect certain uses and rental levels. The sale is offered by closing date with offers over £140,000 (not currently opted to tax).
