Aldessan House is a ‘B’ Listed part two storey and attic and part single storey building of some character and appearance, the original section of which dates back to 1833 and known originally as the “Lairds House”.
The building was converted some years ago into a total of four self-contained commercial units on the ground floor comprising of three shops and a coffee shop / café and gallery, with a separate residential duplex flat on the first and attic floors.
Our client owns an irregular shaped area of land to the rear of the house which is part of Campsie Glen immediately running alongside the Kirk Burn and walkway leading up to Campsie Road and including the car park on Crow Road. This land is available by separate negotiation and further information including a plan can be provided to any interested parties.
The title to the subjects includes a large area of level ground immediately to the front of the building currently used as a car park in part, with the other part a slabbed forecourt area serving the retail units.
There is also an area of garden to the rear of the building, which is included in the title and is allocated to the residential flat.
