Commercial property for sale

Description

McEwan Fraser Legal is delighted to present this unique and highly versatile business, perfectly suited for buyers seeking a move away from the city and looking for an established income stream with room for further growth.

At the heart of the property is a popular and highly regarded petting farm attraction, already awarded 4-star accreditation by VisitScotland and ranked as the No. 2 recommended thing to do in John O' Groats on TripAdvisor. This provides an immediate and proven draw for both locals and the significant tourist footfall the area enjoys each year, establishing the business as a key part of the visitor experience in this world-famous location.

The property offers a proven base for hospitality and lifestyle enterprises. On the B&B side, the accommodation has been thoughtfully upgraded, with solid oak doors adding quality throughout and carpets fitted to the upper level in 2019. Heating and efficiency are supported by an air-source heat pump installed in 2019, complemented by a new front door in 2024. The guest and owner spaces retain a sense of comfort and charm, with the living room log burner and kitchen log-burning stove (2019) creating inviting focal points.

Externally, the business opportunities expand considerably. A refurbished on-site shop (2021) with its own log burner (2022) is ready for trading, offering an immediate commercial avenue. Traditional stone barns and a series of wooden outbuildings, most built within the last six years, provide excellent scope for livestock, storage, or diversification projects. A 30-foot commercial-grade polytunnel frame (requiring a cover) adds potential for horticulture or sustainable growing ventures.

Additional income potential is provided by two caravans, one four-berth and one two-berth, both connected to mains water and electricity and securely enclosed within a wooden shelter. These offer ready-made guest accommodation, staff housing, or short-term rental options.

With its combination of an already successful visitor attraction, diversified income potential, and further development opportunities, this property represents a rare chance to acquire a thriving Highland business in one of Scotland's most visited and iconic regions. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the scope and versatility on offer.
