FREEHOLD COACH & TAXI HIRE BUSINESS IN NORTH EAST SCOTLAND

Affording excellent vehicle access both from the A920 and A947 tourist routes, the business operates from a substantial and well maintained freehold site, which we are advised extends to approximately THREE ACRES in total and naturally provides extensive and secure unrestricted off-road parking facilities. Affording easy vehicle access by means of large, full-height double sliding industrial doors, the premises also offer well fitted internal business accommodation, which briefly comprises the main, bright and spacious, open-plan vehicle maintenance and repairs workshop with concrete flooring, high apex ceiling with glazed roof lights, fluorescent lighting throughout, tool storage racking and workbench area. The workshop is equipped to high industry specifications with a full complement of well maintained, industry standard plant and specialist tools, all of which we understand is to be included in the sale price, along with a substantial fleet of 18 scrupulously maintained coach and minibus vehicles and an additional fleet of 10 private taxi hire vehicles, and further details of which will be made available upon request to any genuine interested parties. Again, affording easy access by means of large, full-height industrial doors, the premises also incorporate an additional large freehold industrial unit, which we understand is currently employed solely for secure storage purposes. Accessed by means of its own separate public/personnel entrance, the premises also feature a single-storey “Portakabin” style unit providing further internal business accommodation consisting of a bright, welcoming, fully furnished and computerised client reception, general administration and traffic control office with full complement of telephone lines, internet access and modern, industry-specific booking and business management systems. Further ancillary internal business accommodation consists of access of all the usual washroom/WC facilities. The property also enjoys the benefit of mains gas, electricity and water supplies, in addition to the added security benefit of a full alarm system.

The subject property occupies an ideal and very convenient trading position with little in the way of direct local competition in the outskirts of the historic town of Oldmeldrum with its famous “Glen Garioch” whisky distillery, which lies at the junction of the A920 and A947, near Inverurie in the delightful Formatine area of Aberdeenshire in north east Scotland.
