General
LOCATION
The subjects lie to the north of Perth City centre, adjacent to the A9 Inveralmond roundabout, Inveralmond Trade Park, the Perth Motor Mile and the bypass, accessed via Dunkeld Road.
Perth is an extremely attractive city situated in what could be described as the heart of Scotland, acting as a logistic/transport hub connecting the A9 south (Glasgow and Stirling) with the M90 (Edinburgh and the south), the A90 (Dundee,Aberdeen and the north east) and the A9 north (Inverness and the north). The A9 between Perth and Inverness experiences some 33,000 daily traffic movements with some 10,000 of these movements immediately north of Perth City.
Perth benefits from a catchment of some 135,000 with 940,000 persons within a 45 minute travel to work area. Perth provides acknowledged benefits in terms of economic climate, benefiting from strong economic performance and low unemployment, a highly regarded and skilled workforce exhibiting low turnover characteristics and a projected steady further population increase. Many international businesses have acknowledged these benefits, including Stagecoach plc, Norwich Union, Highland Distillers, Scottish and Southern Energy plc, Bank of Scotland and IBM. Perth is widely acknowledged as a centre for motor retailing and the famous Motor Mile provides a strong collective consumer draw, benefiting from a very large catchment (Inverness being the only more northerly major comparative centre).
Regular scheduled flights to London City are available from Dundee Airport (30 mins) and many British and European centres are easily accessible from Edinburgh Airport (45 mins).
DESCRIPTION
The subjects comprise a broadly rectangular, predominantly flat site extending to approximately 12.34 Acres (5.00 Ha) between the main A9 Perth – Inverness carriageway and a single track railway line, bounded to the north by Local Authority lands adjacent to the River Almond and to the south by Glenvargill Honda. Access is achieved by means of an adopted road to the east of Glenvargill Honda and Grassicks BMW, linking to Dunkeld Road opposite S& SE plc’s headquarters building/Rossleigh Landrover. Servicing, including suitable access provision within the site, will be required as part of any development and there may be opportunity to structure suitable agreement to achieve this. As well as significant frontage to the A9, the site benefits from exposure to traffic connecting with the bypass from Perth City. PLANNING The subjects benefit from Allocation Ref: P5 (5.0 Ha), within the draft Perth Area/Central Area Local Plan, December 2004. This affords the ability to develop the site for high amenity employment use or for car showroom use. Within the current Perth Area Local Plan (1995), the subjects benefit from Allocation B14 (4.5 Ha), General Business Uses. It is envisaged that the subjects would be ideally suitable for a mixture of complementary individual occupiers or perhaps one or more large occupiers. This high profile site would make an excellent headquarters location. Specific planning/statutory enquiries may be directed to Perth and Kinross Council (01738 475300).
TERMS
It is our client’s preference to retain ownership of the whole/majority of the site and generate long term income stream(s), therefore the subjects are offered to the market on a long ground leasehold basis. However, all proposals put forward will be given due consideration.
ENQUIRIES
Our clients seek expressions of interest or proposals from prospective occupiers.
