A substantial former church offering an exceptional redevelopment opportunity

St Peter's RC Church is an impressive modern church building occupying a prominent position on Howatshaws Road. The property is now vacant and is offered for sale in a state of disrepair, presenting an exciting opportunity for developers, investors or community organisations seeking a landmark building with significant potential. The property requires a comprehensive programme of refurbishment and upgrading throughout and may be suitable for a variety of alternative uses or redevelopment, subject to obtaining all necessary planning consents and statutory approvals. The building retains many attractive architectural features and offers generous internal space within a substantial footprint. Any change of use, redevelopment or conversion will be subject to the necessary planning permissions, listed building consents (if applicable) and all other statutory approvals. Properties of this scale and character rarely become available and this represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a distinctive building with considerable redevelopment potential.
