A former office block in Wishaw is set to go under the hammer at auction later this month.

The property in East Thornlie Street has a guide price of £345,000 and is set to be sold at an online auction on Wednesday, October 23.

The property is being marketed by Online Property Auctions Scotland.

Writing on property website Rightmove, Online Property Auctions state: “The subject is made up of a traditional two storey building of stone construction under a multi-pitched slate roof dating from 1869.

“The property has until recently been used as office accommodation and is currently vacant.

“There are also three further buildings on the site including a timber construction activity building under a pitched felt roof with a brick-built toilet block, A brick-built garage with a pitched slate roof, concrete floor and roller shutter door fronting onto East Thornlie Street.

“On the southern part of the site there is another timber construction activity building under a pitched felt roof, which links to a brick-built swimming pool building under a pitched tile roof.

“The southern activity building and swimming pool are in disrepair and cannot be accessed on safety grounds. There is established garden grounds and areas laid to tarmac providing car parking.

“The property does not benefit from a planning consent, however our clients made a pre-application submission and received a positive response from North Lanarkshire Council towards developing the site with an indicative capacity range from 20 to 26 residential units.

“A drainage appraisal has also been carried out to support the pre-application submission, which has identified a viable solution. The principal building is not listed and the subjects are not in a conservation area.”
