About this property

Harbour View Guest House offers buyers an opportunity to acquire a well-established guest house in the heart of Oban, prominently positioned on the ever-popular Shore Street. This period property dates back to the early 1800’s, offering a unique blend of historic charm and hospitality, set within a short stroll from the iconic seafront.

The property benefits from strong footfall and year-round trade. A grade-B listed building, the guesthouse retains many original features of its era, including high ceilings, sash-style windows, and an impressive sweeping staircase, all of which contribute to its appeal.

Internally, the property has been arranged to offer a blend of owner accommodation, with six guest bedrooms located on the first and second floors, some of which enjoy stunning outlooks over the harbour towards Kerrera and the surrounding islands.

It should be noted that while currently operational, the property would benefit from modernisation throughout and offers potential for reconfiguration, depending on the new owner’s requirements and planning restrictions.

Externally, Harbour Guest House enjoys an attractive frontage onto Shore Street, a popular residential area within the town. A private courtyard garden is located to the rear of the property, accessed from the rear hallway. An external shed offers storage and laundry facilities.
