Unique development opportunity

This unique property represents a superb renovation and development opportunity in the heart of Banff. The accommodation has been partially renovated and now requires completion, providing an ideal blank canvas for investors, builders, or ambitious owner-occupiers looking to create a bespoke home. The existing layout comprises a spacious open-plan ground floor with a mezzanine/loft area above. Works have been started but not completed, with scope for reconfiguration and modernisation to suit individual needs. Once finished, the property would make an attractive main residence, holiday let, or long-term rental. In addition to the main dwelling, the sale includes an adjacent plot with lapsed planning permission (ref: APP/2008/1913) for a three-bedroom, three-bathroom house, offering excellent scope to enhance value and maximise return. Early viewing should be considered to appreciate the opportunity on offer. Council Tax Band A. Unsafe properties Unsafe properties are evidently in a condition that poses a serious risk to the health or safety of occupants or visitors, or where the way the home is marketed suggests it is unsuitable for occupation in that condition. There is little point in a condition survey being undertaken on a home that is unfit for occupation in any case and is being advertised as such.
