OVERVIEW

**360-degree tour available - click above link** 

The freehold of this rarely available industrial unit is available to purchase through Bowman Rebecchi, following the retirement of the previous long-term tenant.

Situated within Sandbank Industrial Estate, the double unit is centrally located, with two 3m roller shutters and large loading bays to the front, with guest and staff parking.

Previously home to a fish processing plant, the units are large and open-plan, with a large walk-in chiller and a smaller modular chiller. The unit has associated staff welfare facilities, a canteen, an office, and a staff changing area as well as gas central heating.

To the side of the property is a secure loading space, and to the rear there are two large shipping containers for storage with space for further containers if required.

The subjects could easily be reconfigured to split into two smaller separate units providing buyers excellent flexibility.

This is a fantastic space for a business to position itself, with industrial property highly popular on the west coast of Scotland. This size of the unit is rarely available to purchase, making this a great opportunity for the right buyer.
