Going under the hammer is this substantial 2 ½ storey former six bedroom bed and breakfast, enjoying prime location close to Stornoway town centre, Isle of Lewis.

The current accommodation is well presented throughout and comprises, on the ground (entry) level, two public rooms, two bedrooms (one en-suite currently used as office), kitchen and bathroom. The lower ground floor offers lounge/study, three en-suite bedrooms, additional kitchen and separate shower room, whilst the first floor boasts two further en-suite bedrooms (jack and jill en-suite from both the larger bedroom and landing) and a large dressing room with en-suite. The office and dressing room could readily repurposed to increase the accommodation to eight bedrooms.

Overall, the versatile accommodation could be reformatted to provide an improved layout for an owner/occupier subject, of course, to any required warrants/consents. Further benefits include a fully integrated smoke and fire alarm system, which has been added in recent years, double glazing, gas central heating, off-street parking, and mature and well maintained gardens to both front and rear. The back garden has access to a woodland, which cannot be built on, as it was gifted in a legacy for wildlife.
A generous 20% discount against Home Report valuation, allied with the variety of business, rental or owner/occupier options, is sure to attract interest from a number of different buyer types.
This is a rare and unique opportunity which must be viewed to be fully appreciated. Council Tax Band: E.
