Description
This former joiners workshop offers a rare opportunity to acquire a prominently located commercial building with clear scope for redevelopment or refurbishment, subject to the necessary consents.
Situated on Patrol Road in Buckie, AB56 4JN, the property lies adjacent to the public car park serving Bo Fiddlers Rock, a well known coastal beauty spot that attracts year round tourist and local footfall. The location is within easy reach of Buckie town centre and harbour, benefitting from good road access and visibility to passing traffic, making it an appealing base for a small business, storage facility or coastal leisure use.
The single storey workshop is of blockwork construction with a blockwork extension to the north, together providing an approximate gross internal area of 110.3 sq m, including a garage of around 41 sq m. The roofs are formed with steel profiled sheeting over timber purlins and rafters, supported by intermediate steel beams. The building has been affected by a fire, with damage concentrated to the south west section; the original roof structure and adjoining blockwork have suffered significant charring and cracking and will require removal and rebuilding in line with the attached structural engineer’s recommendations. The northern extension is reported to be largely unaffected.
Subject to planning, the workshop could be reinstated as a joinery or trade unit, adapted for secure storage or garaging, or repurposed to support nearby tourism activity such as equipment hire, studio space or a small coastal enterprise. The combination of established foundations, existing steel roof beams considered suitable for retention, and proximity to a popular visitor destination provides a solid platform for an imaginative purchaser to create a bespoke facility tailored to their needs.
