Unique Development opportunity in the heart of Shetland

An exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a former public convenience in the heart of Shetland, offering outstanding potential for redevelopment or conversion (subject to necessary consents). Positioned within a well-established and accessible location, this detached property presents a blank canvas for investors, developers, or those seeking an unconventional project. The building is of traditional construction and benefits from an existing footprint that could lend itself to a variety of future uses. Previous examples of similar buildings across the UK have been successfully transformed into stylish holiday lets, cafés, studios, or quirky residential accommodation – making this an exciting prospect for those with vision. Internally, the property currently comprises the original layout associated with its former use, requiring full refurbishment. Services are understood to be available nearby; however, buyers should satisfy themselves in this regard. To ensure you do not miss out on this opportunity early expression of interest is highly recommended.
