Invergordon institution The Silver Dollar bar to go under the hammer
A BAR in an Easter Ross town visited by hundreds of thousands of cruise line passengers every year is going under the hammer.
The Silver Dollar Lounge Bar and Commercial Bar are being described as “a remarkable commercial property in the heart of Invergordon”.
They have been a staple in the community for over 40 years and, according to the selling agents, offer “an exceptional opportunity for revitalization and growth”.

A guide price of £225,000 is described as “highly competitive”.
Would-be buyers are being told that the property includes two public bars and extensive residential space above offering “numerous redevelopment options”.
The Silver Dollar Lounge Bar, accessed from Ross Street, offers a large, flexible area “ready to be returned to a trading unit”.
“This property’s great location and guide price make it an unparalleled investment and incredible opportunity”, said Auction House Scotland managing director, Mandi Cooper.
The Commercial Bar, which is the original part of the building, features structural upgrades including steel beams for wheelchair access.
Above the lounge bar is a suite of seven bedrooms, a kitchen, and shared shower facilities, previously used as a contractor Bed and Breakfast.
The first floor offers a three-bedroom flat flagged as suitable for owner accommodation or short-term rentals. The second floor has a two-bedroom flat.
The seller says its prime location “attracts strong local and tourist demand, supported by the arrival of over 100 cruise ships annually”.
Invergordon, rich in history and natural attractions, is touted as “a vibrant setting for any commercial venture”.
