Armadale Breakers Yard · Land For Sale · 1.55 ac

Long established scrap yard of over 30 years, extending to approx. 1.55 acres, close to the M8. The site includes a recently built shed (60’ x 40’ x 16’ to eaves) with a concrete floor, profile steel roof and wall cladding. The yard sits just to the west of the B8084 and to the south of the railway line, approx. 400m west of Armadale railway station, Asda and the Brewers Fayre. There is security fencing along its northern and eastern boundary and extensive areas of hardcore within. There is a very high spec tarmac access road from the public road. An unrestricted right of access exists from the public road. Having been used over the prescriptive period of 20 years, the site should secure formal planning consent as a breakers yard. Scope for car sales / light industrial use. The seller may agree to an offer subject to the purchaser securing such a consent. Various uses that might be considered are mainstream housing, low cost housing, vehicle sales, and vehicle and caravan storage. The site is very visible from the new Airdrie-Bathgate railway line (which borders the site to the north for 240 metres) therefore a more aesthetically pleasing use might be desired by the local authority, eg, car sales. The seller has agreed to pay for a pre-planning application enquiry to establish what use the council would allow. Current local plan is the West Lothian Local Development Plan October 2015.
