The Old Manse, 9 Commercial Street, Lerwick, ZE1 0AN
Dating from the late 1600’s and reputedly the oldest inhabited house in Lerwick, ‘The Old Manse’ is a substantial stone-built Grade ‘B’ listed detached property, set in a mature garden with a double garage, just a few minutes walk along the shore through the historic ‘Lodberries’ area of Lerwick to the small boat harbour and shops etc. The location affords fine views across the harbour to Bressay.
The accommodation, which is arranged over four floors, includes two reception rooms, a superb newly re-fitted dining kitchen and up to seven bedrooms (three en-suite). The property therefore offers very comfortable and flexible family accommodation with two attic rooms making ideal children’s bedrooms, whilst the lower ground floor accommodation, which includes a reception room & two bedrooms and has its own access at the rear of the house, offers potential for a guest or ‘granny’ suite, or perhaps as a home office.
Many period features remain including, in particular the impressive Victorian porch.
A Home Report is available for this property.

Important Information for Prospective Purchasers
This schedule is intended only to help you decide whether to view the property. We always recommend you view the property personally.
The information is believed to be correct, but it is not warranted and is not to form part of any contract of sale. All dates, distances, areas and room sizes noted are approximate and for use as a general guide only. Prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves as to the working condition or otherwise of any equipment such as central heating or kitchen appliances.
This schedule should not be taken as a comment on the condition of the property. This is a matter for your surveyor and we recommend that once you have found a property you are interested in, you obtain a survey report. We can provide details of surveyors if required.
Interested parties are advised to note their interest through their solicitor as soon as possible so that they can be informed if a closing date is fixed. Noting interest does not place any obligation on the seller to set a closing date or to give any noted interests the opportunity to offer. Whilst every effort will be made to advise noted interests of any closing date set, this cannot be guaranteed.
No responsibility will be accepted for expenses incurred by parties who have noted interest but do not get an opportunity to offer, or for any expenses incurred traveling to properties which have been sold or withdrawn.
