Unique commercial property

New to auction is this unique commercial property, Eden Watermill, enjoying picturesque rural setting approximately five miles south west of Banff, Aberdeenshire. Previously trading as a gift shop and tearoom, the property extends over three levels, each of which can be accessed independently. The first floor offers approximately 65 sq. metres, with a further 50 sq. metres on the first floor. There is also a large basement area which houses a generator offering a useful back-up power source. The property offers a variety of potential commercial uses, but the peaceful setting and unique style of property could equally lend itself to conversion to residential use such as holiday rental. Any change of use or other development would, of course, be subject to any required consents. The published rateable value is £5,900 which means that the property may qualify for rates relief under the Small Business Bonus Scheme. A highly competitive Guide Price, allied with the range of end uses, is sure to attract strong levels of demand from a variety of buyer types. Early viewing is essential.
