Profitable business and home in Georgian house + Annexe in Attractive Tourist Town in South Scotland

Guesthouse plus accommodation in a scenic location for sale

Shorty to be listed with commercial agents, Bruce & Co. The business is easily managed and provides a great lifestyle for its current owners of 14 years, who now wish to retire due to failing health.

This beautiful Georgian townhouse is in the historic heart of Kirkcudbright, known as 'The Artist's Town' due to its colonisation by artists since the 19th century. They were attracted by its pretty architecture and stunning landscapes.

The little town with its working harbour and pretty marina, nestled on the Dee Estuary as it flows into the Irish Sea, is located on Scotland's southwest coast. It has a mild climate due to the gulf stream.

The guesthouse and self-catering annexe provide a good income and an exceptional lifestyle for its owners. They benefit from being part of this wonderful community and living in a pretty and historic coastal town with many annual festivities, attractions and amenities that attract visitors throughout the year.

The house has four en suite guest rooms, two doubles and two twins. One of the twins is located on the ground floor. The other has a bath with a shower over. It is located with the two doubles that share the first floor with the elegant and sumptuous drawing-room that serves as a comfortable guest lounge.

Breakfast is served to individual tables for two in the bright and spacious dining room overlooking the pretty walled garden.

The annexe has been converted from the old stables into a pretty studio apartment for two. It has a conservatory and private garden. It is let on a self-catering basis and is hugely popular, being tucked away yet close to all local amenities. It has a private entrance through the cobbled courtyard to the side of the house. The annexe alone achieves an annual income of circa £15,000.

The owner's accommodation comprises a spacious kitchen with an original cast iron range and modern cooking facilities, an office/restroom and toilet facilities and shower room all on the ground floor, as well as two bedrooms and bathroom with a roll-top bath on the second floor with views out over the town and hills beyond.

The business was established as a B&B and Holiday Let in 1995. It has been under the current owner's possession since 2008. The current owners love their lifestyle and are reluctantly selling for retirement/health reasons. They have decided not to place the house and business on the market with estate agents at this stage but are happy to consider interest from the rightbiz platform directly.
