Description




The site occupies a prominent position in the harbour, and is currently used as a boatyard. Currently there is a large, detached high-bay warehouse/workshop, office and range of other stores and workshops on the land, together with a car park.

The high bay steel portal frame building extends to 326.23 sq m (3,512 sq ft) and has a ridge height of around 11.9 m. There is also a smaller workshop extending to 205.81 sq m (2,215 sq ft) and some smaller buildings which are currently unused.

The coastal path runs along part of the northern edge of the site.

A single storey building fronting on to Coquet Street, is also within the vendor’s ownership. This building is occupied by the popular Spurreli Ice Cream Parlour. This building is excluded from the site, however, it could be made available if a similar property were to be provided within a larger redevelopment of the site.

The site extends to 1.16 acres (0.47 hectares) or thereabouts, and part enjoys frontage directly onto the Estuary.

Planning

A planning application was submitted in 2021 for the development of this site to provide 54 apartments in five residential blocks. The application was refused. However, we understand the general principle of development is accepted and that a scheme for a less intensive development would be more favourable. The adjoining development, which was constructed around 2020, comprises of a range of apartments and penthouses within five-storey buildings. The site may also be suitable for other uses, such as a hotel or other leisure-led schemes or commercial uses, subject to all necessary consents including planning consent being obtained.
