Conversion-ready site with planning consent and strong local amenities.
Category C listed former 18th-century hotel in town centre
A rare central development site in Kirriemuir, anchored by a Category C listed former hotel dating from the 18th century. Planning permission exists to convert the main building to include one retail unit and create a block of residential accommodation, delivering five residential units including two semi‑detached cottages (listing also references planning for seven properties — buyer to verify). The site sits in the town’s Conservation Area and benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, making it suitable for modern residential or mixed-use schemes.
The main building requires full renovation and adaptation to new uses; the listed status and Conservation Area location will restrict changes and may increase conservation and consent costs. There is also undeveloped, overgrown land on the site that offers additional scope but will need clearance and possible remediation. The town centre position provides immediate access to restaurants, shops, public services and tourist attractions, supporting both rental demand and a small retail unit.
This opportunity suits a developer or investor experienced with historic buildings and listed‑building consents. Full plans are available for review; purchasers should undertake their own due diligence on planning details (noting the differing unit counts in some marketing), listed‑building constraints, and local viability given the area’s social and economic profile. Viewings are by appointment only.
