Wick is the principal county town for Caithness, situated approximately 100 miles north of Inverness and connected via the A9/A99 Trunk road, the Inverness to Wick/Thurso rail line and Wick Airport. Thurso and Scrabster are approximately 20 miles to the north-west, with regular ferries to Orkney, complemented by the ferry service from Gills Bay to Orkney. The world famous NC 500 route passes through Wick and has raised the profile of the area. The economy has a blend of sectors including onshore and offshore wind, oil and gas, agriculture and food and drink, with the long term decommissioning of the Dounreay nuclear facility securing significant activity. Rolls Royce, BT and Subsea 7 are key employers and the Beatrice Offshore Windfarm, led by SSE Renewables, is one of the largest ever private sector infrastructure projects in Scotland, with its O&M base at Wick Harbour.
The units are located at Wick Business Park, on the north eastern outskirts of Wick adjacent to the A99 Thurso/John O’Groats road. The business park has a mixture of office and industrial buildings, with occupiers including NHS Highland, BBM Solicitors, G&A Barnie Group, GMR Henderson and Lochshall Dental Clinic. It is situated close to Wick/ John O’Groats Airport which has regular connections with
Aberdeen.
The subjects are the last remaining development site on Wick Business Park. The Business Park has been developed for office and industrial uses. The access road serving the business Park has been fully adopted with mains services installed. A Deed of Conditions is in place with regards to the Business Park dealing with common parts.
This is a good opportunity to secure a prominent site for either owner occupation or potential development opportunities.
