Description
This charming commercial unit, currently operating as a ladies’ boutique (Chameleon), offers a prime opportunity in the heart of Lamlash. The shop, known as 28 Hamilton Terrace, was historically the village post office and retains its character and prominence within the community. The property benefits from a rateable value below £12,000, qualifying it for 100% business rates relief, though interested parties are advised to confirm this with the relevant local authorities.
This spacious ground-floor retail unit boasts large bay windows to both the front and side, offering stunning beach views while enhancing visibility and increasing footfall as passersby are naturally drawn to look inside. The shop also features a separate side entrance, previously used by a hairdresser, providing additional commercial flexibility. At the rear, a storeroom and kitchen area offer practical space for storage and operational needs.
This property offers excellent potential for development, with both residential and commercial possibilities. The current layout includes a ground-floor shop and a one bedroom flat above, but the property could be reconfigured (STPP) to create a spacious ground-floor flat or combine both levels into a large family home. With high rental demand on the island and a prime location, this is an exciting opportunity to create a desirable residential or mixed-use space.
Additionally, the current owners are retiring after many years of successful trading and are open to discussions regarding the continued operation of the boutique or a similar business. The sale of fittings, fixtures, stock, or the entire business as a going concern can be negotiated separately, outside of the sale of the property
This charming first-floor flat offers a comfortable living space with stunning views over Lamlash Bay and the Holy Isle. The bright lounge features an exceptional outlook, providing the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the scenery.
With its independent electricity supply and storage heaters, the flat is practical and self-contained. Access is available both internally from the shop below or via a separate entrance at the rear, adding flexibility. Given its prime location and the high rental demand on the island, this flat would be an attractive and sought-after rental property.
The bedroom, located on the side of the property, enjoys fantastic views over Lamlash Bay thanks to its large windows. These provide an abundance of natural light and offer a serene setting, allowing you to wake up to beautiful water views and the tranquil surroundings of the bay.
The kitchen is compact and functional, offering all the essentials for everyday living. It is well-lit and provides a practical space for cooking and meal preparation. The bathroom, a three-piece suite, includes a bath with shower over, a WC, and a washbasin, offering both convenience and comfort.
To the rear of the property, a private, well-maintained lawned garden offers a tranquil outdoor space, enclosed by lush greenery and mature bushes. The garden also benefits from a garden shed for added storage. This serene area provides an ideal spot for relaxation in the sun. Access is via a footpath leading to the adjacent ‘Back House’ cottage (25A).
