LocationComrie is an attractive Perthshire town with a population of circa
1, 900 persons serving a much larger rural hinterland. The town is widley
regarded as a gateway to the Highlands, at the western end of the Strathearn
district and south of the Grampian Mountains.
The town is popular as a retirement village, typically having a large
proportion of the population over 65 years. Dalginross fronts onto the main
traffic route leading through Comrie (A822), at its junction with Dalginross
Gardens, which is a good quality private residential area within short walking
distance of the town centre which lies to the north.
BusinessThis business is reluctantly being brought to the market as a result
of retirement. The vendor has owned and run the business for the past 27
years.
Although the care home is owner operated there is an experienced management
team in place to deal with the day to day running of the home.
