“The Tower Guesthouse”, 32 James St, Stornoway is a b-listed Victorian villa with a separate cottage, originally built in 1885 and retaining many attractive period features, including ornate cornices, ceiling roses, and stained and etched glass.
An Asbestos Refurbishment/Demolition Report has been carried out, confirming that no asbestos is present. The electrical system has been stripped out, and a temporary rcd-protected “garage” supply has been installed, along with a new smart meter. A mains gas supply is in place (currently capped externally).
Listed building consent and full planning permission for conversion to residential use were granted in December 2025. The large trees in the garden have been removed, and the grounds have been excavated and hard-filled to create parking and a practical working area.
The original lath and plaster have been removed throughout. Although no evidence of infestation was found, the roof timbers have been professionally treated for woodworm as a precaution. The staircase and window surrounds have largely been prepared and primed, ready for final finishing.
