    Description


    Ballater Studios and Workshops is an attractive single storey building which was built in 2008 very close to the centre of Ballater. The building is constructed of rendered block with a slate roof over. The property is currently vacant and therefore available for immediate entry.

    There are 2 entrances into the building at the studio end. Each of the workshops also have both independent pedestrian and vehicular entrances. The number of entrances available means the property benefits from being very easy to sub-divide.
    Reason for sale


    The vendor’s late father owned and operated the Studios and Workshops. It is the owner’s desire to become the landlord of this exceptional property.
    Location


    The Studios and Workshops are located within the Royal Deeside village of Ballater which lies 42 miles West of Aberdeen amid beautiful countryside in the Cairngorms National Park and is within easy reach of Balmoral, the Scottish holiday home of the Royal family. The property is ideally positioned within an industrial park around a 5 minute walk from the town centre.
    This attractive and friendly town has many restaurants, cafes and shops, a number of which feature the Royal ’By Appointment’ Coat of Arms. The village has a primary school; secondary education is at Aboyne. Near-by Braemar, famous for its annual Highland Gathering, draws tourists from all over the world. Ballater has a population of circa 1500. Aberdeen is the closest City with a full range of social and welfare amenities plus an international airport.
    The property


    Ballater Studios and Workshops is an attractive rendered building ideally located within a relatively new industrial park with parking, and is situated right next to the A93, the main route connecting Braemar and Aberdeen. The Studios have attractive entrance doors which are partly glazed with a largely windowed frontage resulting in the studios and office benefitting from great levels of natural light. In addition to the studio and workshop areas there is a WC with shower, kitchen and an office, all located between workshop 1 and the studios.

    The floor dimensions are circa:
    Studio 1 - 5m x 5m
    Studio 2 - 6.37m x 5m (Studio 3 WC protrudes into this area)
    Studio 3 - 3.63m x 5m
    Workshop 1 - 13m x 11.8m (has 3ph power)
    Workshop 2 - 13m x 11.8m (has 3ph power and WC protrudes into this area)
    Office - 3.84m x 2.09m
    Shower / WC - 2.84m x 1.48m
    Kitchen - 2.14m x 1.48m

    The potential lessee must satisfy themselves with the accuracy of the dimensions.

    The building extends to about 400m² and offers an excellent flexible working space. The owner had previously fitted out the attic area over workshop 1 without the necessary statutory consents. This area is around 60m², (not included in the detail above). This area was being used as a storage area, with an open stair accessed directly from Workshop 1.

    The building could accommodate a number of subdivision options, such as:
    Studio 3 area could become a small self-contained unit
    Studios 1 and 2 could be split in half forming studio 2, (please note a new toilet would be required) back-to-back with the studio 3 WC.
    The toilet and kitchen could be shared between the Workshop unit 1 and Studio 1, leaving the office to be associated with either, with the introduction of a lock.
    Studio 1 and Workshop 1 could be combined into one unit.
    Workshop unit 2 could be stand alone.
    The two workshops could be joined by forming internal openings between the two areas.

    Any adjustments to the building would have to have landlord consent and statutory authority approvals, at the tenant’s expense.
    Development opportunity

    This is a flexible opportunity, should a lessee wish to divide of part of the building, the owner may be amenable to this, depending on the level of interest at that time. Adjustment to the building is anticipated to be possible with landlord consent and statutory authority approvals.
