Ronald Ross are delighted to present to the market Auchencraig House, an exceptional Victorian villa of significant historical character, enviably positioned within the ever-popular seaside town of Dunoon on the picturesque Cowal Peninsula.

Formerly operated as an elegant family residence before later conversion to commercial use, this substantial detached property offers a rare opportunity to acquire a landmark building with outstanding versatility and remarkable development potential.

Set amidst private mature gardens extending to approximately 0.75 acres, the property boasts an impressive internal footprint exceeding 410 square metres. Internally, Auchencraig House retains an abundance of original period features throughout, including grand staircases, ornate cornicing and impressive reception hallways across both levels, all of which remain in excellent condition and add greatly to the property's charm and character.

The accommodation currently comprises 17 generously proportioned rooms alongside two kitchens and two bathrooms, providing flexible space suitable for a wide range of future uses. Subject to the relevant planning consents, the property could lend itself to numerous commercial or residential opportunities including a boutique hotel, luxury apartments, event venue, care facility, showroom, office headquarters or the restoration back to an outstanding private residence.

Further enhancing the appeal is the potential for extension and further development within the grounds, offering purchasers the opportunity to maximise the site's full potential.

Dunoon and the wider Cowal Peninsula continue to attract substantial interest from investors and homeowners alike, recently being recognised as one of the UK’s emerging property hotspots. The area benefits from excellent transport links, with regular bus services operating from Dunoon Pier to surrounding areas. Caledonian MacBrayne provides frequent ferry crossings from Dunoon to Gourock, connecting directly with rail services to Glasgow Central Station. Western Ferries also operate regular sailings from nearby Hunters Quay to McInroy’s Point, with onward transport links to Glasgow’s Buchanan Street Bus Station.

Now recognised as the marine gateway to Scotland’s first national park, Dunoon offers an enviable lifestyle surrounded by stunning coastal scenery, outdoor pursuits and growing investment appeal.

Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the scale, character and opportunity this remarkable property presents.
