General Information

The premise is located in the Whitesands area of Dumfries and is within good distance of parking facilities. The property is close to the River Nith but the property has not been breached since 2015 as over the past 5 years different flood defence mechanisms have been put into place. Some of these mechanisms include three sump pumps at entrance locations with separate petrol driven systems which generate separate electric generator which backs up electric pumps if electricity is lost. Permanent flood door at one side and release door to front of the building.

The premise is currently run as a spare parts store.  The shelving etc may be included in the sale subject to prospective purchasers’ wishes. As this was once a restaurant/bar a change of use may be granted. (Potential purchasers’ should contact Dumfries & Galloway Council) to satisfy themselves of the basic facts.
