Scottish Business Centre is delighted to bring to the market a most charming country estate. Peacefully positioned and surrounded by mature gardens & lawns, the impressive Peelwalls Estate which is located near Berwick – Upon- Tweed by the picturesque village of Ayton on the Scottish Borders, is a fine example of 18th centaury architecture at its best. Ayton village with its handsome baronial- style castle has a primary school, Post Office and shop, village hall and a local pub & restaurant. Sitting on an elevated position with views of Ayton Castle, the village, and beautiful rolling border farmland, Peelwalls House is a grand country Manor that benefits from retaining much of its original features and grandeur. Until only recently Peewalls House traded as a popular nursing home “The Borders Nursing Home” which accommodated 26 residents in 12 single and 7 shared rooms, two bedrooms are en-suite. In previous years consent was passed to ad a further 36 units bringing the total number of beds to 62. However, it should be noted that due to the standard and size of the house itself, the idyllic surroundings plus with the huge potential to expand on the previous operation; Peelwalls House and Estate offers a rare opportunity for an established care group or smaller operator to develop a much needed facility that focuses on specialist care. We are advised that the area urgently needs a quality hospice or clinic, so much so that the local authorities would gratefully welcome such a facility. With the correct levels of investment and planning, Peelwalls House and Estate represents a terrific opportunity to develop into a top class facility that could offer care to residents from throughout Scotland and the north of England. Due to the flexible layout, Peelwalls, subject to usual planning consents, may also be of interest to hoteliers looking to create a high class country hotel & sporting estate. Although our clients are actively looking to sell the freehold property and the 30 acres of land that surrounds Peelwalls House, it should be noted that the opportunity to lease the property may also be available. Details will be released on request. Our clients strongly believe that Peelwalls Estate represents a rare opportunity for an established operator or perhaps a property investor to acquire a most impressive country estate that offers the potential for a substantial return on investment. Now due to a wish to retire, our clients have decided to offer the property for sale.
