Braehill Lodge Care Home in Carnoustie, Angus, has been sold to an expanding local operator.

Established in 1993 by Alex and Noreen Rowe, the home is registered for up to 24 older people and the original building likely dates from the late Victorian or Edwardian era, with extension wings added to the rear and side varying in age from the mid-1990s onwards. Arranged over two storeys, the home has had significant investment over the years, resulting in a highly-compliant and well-thought-out 24-bedroom property.

The building is nestled among residential dwellings in the golf resort of Carnoustie, Angus, and enjoys an elevated site, offering views over the town and the sea beyond.

Following a confidential sales process with Martin Daw at Christie & Co, the home has been sold to an unnamed expanding local operator.

Daw said: “It is always encouraging to see smaller care homes transact in the market.

“With the continued and evolving operational cost challenges, it’s often the small homes that struggle to survive, but Braehill was one of the exceptions.

“The home thrived from a high level of private clients and delivered consistently-good-quality grades with the Care Inspectorate.”

Braehill Lodge Care Home was sold for an undisclosed price.
