A series of images have shown the inside of an abandoned pet hotel, hidden by woodlands near Glasgow. The property in Chryston was put up for sale last year, with estate agent photos showing the buildings having gone to seed.
The Courtyard Pet Hotel includes two residential buildings – a bungalow and a cottage – as well as several outbuildings, including dog kennels, a cattery, storage space and lots of green fields.
Much of the property and its land was left in need of some major TLC, with the grassy fields looking dry, dead, and overgrown, reports Glasgow Live.
Both residential buildings are in need of major modernising, as both the interior and exterior appear dated. The windows on both are also seen boarded up.
The cottage has two floors with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room and kitchen. The bungalow has three bedrooms, two bathrooms (including an ensuite), a dining room, sitting room, kitchen, utility room and a large conservatory.
Despite its run-down look, there is potential for another pet hotel to spring up, with kennels, a dog run, and a cattery on site, as well as a washroom and timber store in the outbuildings and a double garage.
The whole plot, including the meadowy forest, is just over 4.5 acres. And it sits in a private but accessible position, close to the centre of Chryston and only a few miles north-east of Glasgow.
The property had been on sale with Galbraith Stirling for £350,000 last year, but the listing has since been removed.
The advert on On the Market, by Galbraith Stirling, read: “The property provides an excellent development opportunity, benefitting from two existing residential dwellings, a range of useful and adaptable outbuildings which have historically been used as dog kennels and a cattery, and an area of land and amenity woodland extending to about 1.83 Ha (4.52 Acres) in total.
“Adjacent to the Bungalow, and adjoining some of the outbuildings there is a converted stable block which forms a detached stone-built dwelling with double garage.”
