A four-bedroom Arbroath house just a stone’s throw away from the town harbour is going under the hammer for less than £100,000.

The terraced property on the corner of Marketgate and Ladybridge Street has an interesting history.

In its time the property has been a sweet shop and dental surgery.

But it has also been a much-loved family home and its owners are going to auction after a summer sale fell through.

Marketgate property for sale in Arbroath. Street view shows Arbroath harbour is just a couple of hundred yards away.

They say it could be a stunning house, or have a number of other uses including retail and rental.

The ground floor contains an entrance vestibule, large living room, a modern kitchen and WC.

There are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first floor.

And the second floor contains a double and single bedroom. It has hardwood floors throughout.

Despite its size, the property only has a Band B council tax rating.

There are hopes it could appeal to a buy to let landlord who might expect a rental income of around £1,000 per month.

And the house’s position, just a hundred yards away from Arbroath’s bustling marina, might make it attractive to a developer looking to set up tourist accommodation.
