Graham + Sibbald helps Apex Hotels sell iconic Customs House building

Scottish chartered surveyor and property specialist Graham + Sibbald are delighted to have sold Customs House in Dundee, working on behalf of Apex Hotels.

The Customs House building, which is located in a prominent position on the corner of Dock Street and West Victoria Dock Road and adjacent to the Apex Hotel, has been sold to a property developer.

Customs House is a prominent 3 storey Grade โ€˜Aโ€™ listed late Georgian mansion house which extends to around 28,000 square feet.  The building was mostly recently office accommodation but now provides the opportunity for conversion to residential property.

Graham + Sibbald Commercial Associate Grant Robertson commented, โ€œG+S were delighted to be instructed to sell such an iconic building on behalf of Apex Hotels. It was a fantastic opportunity to purchase such a prominent building within Dundeeโ€™s exciting waterfront redevelopment.  After a short marketing period, and an extremely high level of interest, a closing date was set and weโ€™re pleased to announce that the sale has now completed.

Angela Vickers Chief Executive Officer, Apex Hotels Limited said, โ€œ  We are pleased to have found a buyer committed to the retention, development and restoration of one of the cityโ€™s most historic and much-loved buildings. We continue to focus on developing Apex City Quay Hotel and Spa, which has seen ยฃ3.4 million invested over the past two years, with a ยฃ2.4 million full bedroom refurbishment and, more recently, a ยฃ1 million programme of works to refurbish public areas, restaurant and spa.โ€
