Description
The property occupies a site of circa 1.1 acres and is an imposing late Victorian red sandstone building. The property consists of two main floors plus an attic, with a pitched timber roof structure laid in slate. It features many attractive and decorative architectural and period features. Converted into a care facility in the 1990's, the building has undergone ongoing refurbishment and extensions throughout the years by the current owner.
With an impressive appearance, the main entrance faces onto the driveway down from Tay Street and with large windows on all elevations making the most of the stunning outlook over the River Tay and pleasant wooded garden surroundings.
The facility includes 18 bedrooms - 16 single rooms and an additional two twin rooms. 16 of the rooms have ensuite shower facilities, three of which are full wet room. Previously operating as a care facility, is has recently closed, offering the opportunity for redevelopment to residential use (subject to planning permission), or for reconfigured for specialist care use.
Riverview Lodge is located in the affluent town of Newport-on-Tay, situated in the north-east of Fife. Newport-on-Tay has a population of 4,118 and a short trip over the Tay Bridge to Dundee and 10 miles from St Andrews. The Fife Coastal Path passes through Newport-on-Tay.
The property sits below road level on the eastern outskirts of the town and occupies a large site that stretches right down to the southern shore of the Tay River. The property is surrounded by a quality mix of mostly private residential properties.
The area benefits from local bus services that connect Newport-on-Tay to Dundee. The closest train station is in Dundee, which is 3.3 miles away.
The property comprises of 18 bedrooms spread across two floors. Sixteen of the bedrooms offer ensuite facilities, which include a WC, wash hand basin, and shower. Additionally, three bedrooms are equipped with full wet rooms, while two bedrooms include only a WC and wash hand basin.
The ground floors consist of 12 single bedrooms, a spacious lounge, a dining room, a commercial kitchen with storage, laundry room and treatment room. Storage rooms are conveniently located throughout the ground floor. The first floor comprises of 6 bedrooms, storage room, and a sluice room.
Lift access is provided between floors.
The Property occupies a broadly regular- shaped, sloping site extending to approximately 1.1 acres. The main entrance looks onto the driveway, where parking is available.
An attractive wooden garden and patio area located at the rear of the property, offering views over the River Tay. The surrounding views also include the Tay Rail and road bridges that cross the River Tay, as well as distant views of the Scottish Highlands.
Given the location and size of this plot the property would lend itself to conversion back to residential (STPP).
It could be reconfigured for care use but would need to comply to the new building design standards which would likely reduce bedroom numbers further and therefore be better suited for specialist care given smaller unit living.
The Rateable Value as of 1st April 2023 is £25,900. Confirmation of actual rates payable can be obtained from the local Authority.
