Location
MOFFAT, which has a population of around 2,500, lies in the Annandale district of the Dumfries & Galloway Council area and is a former Spa town, now recognised as a popular tourist destination.
Dumfries is the region’s principal settlement and is located 21 miles to the south west.
The town is bypassed by the A74(M) motorway which provides excellent road links to the north and south. Glasgow is approximately 59 miles distant with Carlisle around 44 miles.
The town is also located at the intersection of the A701 tourist route to Edinburgh, which lies some 53 miles to the north, and the A708 road to Galashiels, approximately 41 miles to the north east.
The property is located on the eastern side of Station Road, therefore fronting the main traffic route into Moffat town centre. The unit is also positioned on the main pedestrian route between the town centre and the Woollen Mill coach stop, resulting in good levels of passing footfall.
