Superb south facing site with planning permission for Drumoak Tourist Centre development.


Description

Drumoak Tourist Centre
Planning permission has been granted by Aberdeenshire Council (ref APP/2011/3852) for the erection of three chalets, each with three bedrooms, including principal bedroom with en suite, and a further reception office/store, building landscaping work has commenced.

This is a rare opportunity to provide a purpose built facility with accommodation for tourists and holiday makers exclusively set within Royal Deeside in a prestige country area setting with an abundance of local attractions including Drum Castle, the River Dee and the Deeside Way, all of which are located close by. Full details of the proposal, including Marketing Strategy, business plan and Drumoak Tourist Centre portfolio are available on request from Savills. The sale provides a unique opportunity to purchase a well located site with planning permission for a tourism based development, which has been carefully planned to preserve the privacy of the area being secluded but not isolated.

Location

Drumoak Tourist Centre is set on the eastern outskirts of the village of Drumoak, between Aberdeen to the east and Banchory, the gateway to Royal Deeside, to the west. The site has a leafy green location, sheltered and screened by mature trees, in a tranquil setting surrounded by meadows and woodland and with open southerly views over farmland to the Durris Hills. The Deeside Way is within in a few hundred metres and the River Dee is within easy reach.

Drumoak village provides essential local amenities including a shop serving everyday needs, a pub, church, hairdresser, park and a bowling green. Drumoak Primary School is also within the village. For secondary schooling the highly regarded Banchory Academy and The International School of Aberdeen at Pitfodels are both close by. Banchory, 8 miles to the west, has a good range of shops, sports centres, a swimming pool and a golf course. Peterculter, less than 3 miles away, offers a range of conveniences including a BP garage with a Marks & Spencer food store, schooling, Kippie Lodge Country Club, golf course, church, restaurants, medical centre, chemist, banks, supermarket, post office, library, hairdresser and local shopping. The Garthdee Retail Park at Bridge of Dee offers extensive shopping facilities. Aberdeen is within easy commuting distance and offers all the facilities expected of a major regional centre. The property will benefit from the new Aberdeen Bypass, improving access to Aberdeen Airport and to routes south.
