Description

Buchan House offers a rare opportunity to acquire an extremely versatile property, currently operating as an long-established guest house business (accounts available on request). Buchan House boasts a five star rating on Trip Advisor and occupies a sought after position in the popular tourist town of Moffat.

This pretty semi-detached B-Listed Victorian villa, with its distinctive wrought iron detailing to the front, has approximately 3,639 square feet of well organised living accommodation over three floors and in its current configuration offers eight bedrooms.

Buchan House is brimming with beautiful features throughout, including ornate cornicing, ceiling roses and feature fireplaces. The ground level begins with a picturesque covered veranda with seating area and leads in to the main hallway and reception area. From here is the sizeable dining room and a working commercial-grade kitchen with plenty of worktop space, an array of wall and floor mounted cabinetry, high spec appliances and a utility room off. In its current arrangement the kitchen and utility room occupy part of the self-contained owner’s accommodation at the back of the property, complete with sitting room, study and bathroom. Two en suite bedrooms complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, the first floor comprises four en suite bedrooms and spacious drawing room with lovely elevated views overlooking the tennis courts and bowling green. There are an additional two double bedrooms on the second floor which share access to a bathroom.

Buchan House benefits from its own illuminated private car park with space for six cars, additional on-street parking and a large detached garage.

As mentioned earlier, Buchan House currently operates as a profitable business and as such has accounts available on request, and part of the property is commercially rated.

Location

Moffat is a picturesque and popular tourist town in Dumfries & Galloway offering a wide range of shops and professional services including hotels, restaurants, a leisure centre and golf course, along with nursery, primary and secondary education all available on one campus. As a former spa town, Moffat grew in importance in the Victorian era and many wealthy buyers from Glasgow and Edinburgh purchased substantial villas in the town, with many of these townhouses still in existence today.

There are plentiful walks along the riverside and excellent opportunities for country sports in the area, with tennis, golf, shooting and fishing available locally and hill walking in the nearby Annandale and Queensberry Hills with links to the Southern Upland Way.

Dumfries provides a wider range of facilities, including a hospital, a selection of shops, supermarkets, sports clubs and further professional services. Carlisle, which also offers a variety of amenities, is 41 miles to the south. The M74, the main route between England and Scotland, is close to Moffat and provides a motorway connection both north to Glasgow and south to the M6 which leads to Carlisle, Penrith, and the Midlands. There are railway stations at Dumfries, Lockerbie and Carlisle. Glasgow is about 54 miles to the north, while Edinburgh is 53 miles to the northeast and can be reached by the A701 or via the A702 through Biggar.
