The McGill Duncan Art Gallery is set within a charming building with many
attractive internal features. The property is located close to the end of King
Street in the picturesque market town of Castle Douglas. The Gallery was
established in 1978 by Niall McGill Duncan and is the oldest privately run art
gallery in Southwest Scotland.
This thoroughly charming building is set over three floors currently offering
five exhibiting rooms. The two exhibiting rooms to the front both benefit from
cosy open fires which are normally lit during the winter months for any
exhibitions. The property mainly benefits from solid oak skirtings and door
frames, with relatively new oak effect flooring laid throughout the ground
floor. A wooden spiral staircase gives access to the second floor, which also
benefits from an open fire with a second spiral staircase following through to
the third floor, where the ceilings have been fully insulated and wood
panelled within the current ownership. To the rear there is a beautiful
tranquil garden which is accessed through the sunroom. Given the nature the
business, a new state of the art security system has recently been installed.
Although the property has been run as a commercial enterprise for many years,
we are of the opinion that there could be some development potential for
change of use to residential or mixed residential and commercial, however, any
interested party wishing to pursue this would need to make their own enquiries
with Dumfries & Galloway Regional Council.
