'Iconic' Scottish parish church and estate put up for sale

AN “iconic” parish church and surrounding estate in North Lanarkshire has been put up for sale.

Bargeddie, in North Lanarkshire, offers a strategic and convenient location in the central belt, Shepherd Chartered Surveyors, who are handling the sale, said.

Bargeddie Parish Church is situated on Manse Road which can be accessed via Gartcosh Road, attracting a high level passing traffic.

The surrounding area has also recently undergone significant residential redevelopment with housebuilders such as Barratt Homes developing in the area.

The church itself meanwhile consists of four detached buildings and an extensive plot of land to the rear of the self-contained 2.5 acres site.

It features an open-plan worshipping area on the ground floor level with amenities such as a kitchen and prep area, toilet facilities and storage space at the rear of the property.

The estate consists of two residential dwellings near the main entrance. The smaller of the two is a two-bedroom residence that has recently undergone refurbishment, providing a modern living space with a kitchen, living area and a bathroom.

The larger dwelling spans two floors, offering multiple rooms, single bathroom and has the potential to be repurposed as four flats.

Calvin Molinari, agency surveyor at Shepherd, said: “The property offers various opportunities for both development and existing use.

"We are delighted to be involved in another iconic sale following recent success in disposing of the former United Free Church in Shawlands.”

Interested parties should contact the sole selling agent on 0141 331 2807.
