58 John Finnie Street presents a unique opportunity to establish a place of business in a major town centre corridor of Kilmarnock with a spacious interior and versatile use cases. A Scots Baronial-style octagonal turret, paired with irreplicable red sandstone brickwork and a slate roof, asserts a grand presence along John Finnie Street. This attractive Category B listed building comes with Class 11 permission, and the floors are available in whole or in part, affording immense flexibility for new occupants. The 3,284-square-foot first floor comprises a bar/nightclub area, WC facilities, stores, and offices, and the landlord is willing to remove the bar should it not suit the new tenant. The second floor spans 3,024 square feet and includes WC facilities, stores, and a dance floor with an arched, vaulted ceiling and custom molding. Additionally, a ground-floor entrance space will be included as a common space. John Finnie Street is a prominent secondary town centre location, with a diverse mix of retail, food, office, and licensed trade uses that generate traffic throughout the day. Access is seamless with on- and off-street car parking available, and Kilmarnock Station is only a five-minute walk away.

The plans include a performance amphitheatre, dining seats adjacent to Foregate Shops, urban benches, green space improvements, and an Active Mobility Hub to promote physical activity, sustainable travel, and help create a safe and welcoming gateway for the town.
