Extensive inventory of quality fixtures & fittings included & early viewing essential REF 1232

The subject premises occupy an outstanding trading position with little in the way of direct local competition in the charming riverside town of Rothes with its famous nearby Glen Grant Distillery, which lies on the busy main A941 to the nearby historic tourist town of Elgin, in the delightful Speyside region of Morayshire.

We are delighted to present this fantastic opportunity to acquire the valuable freehold rights to a thriving commercial proposition of exceptional quality and uncommon further potential, which we are confident you will agree represents genuine value.

This very well established and highly regarded workshop is currently primarily equipped to high industry specifications to undertake professional and fully accredited Class IV MOT work, with the plans for the introduction of a locally unopposed Class VII MOT service already at an advanced stage.

The workshop also offers an excellent range of associated general auto mechanical repairs, maintenance, diagnostic, tyre, clutch, brake and exhaust services for most petrol and diesel private and light commercial marques, and is a valued member of the highly regarded Scottish Motor Trade Association.

“Rothes Garage Ltd” provides its services for a long-standing and still-expanding repeat and referral client base of private vehicle owners and small fleet operators drawn from throughout a wide surrounding catchment area, and would naturally furnish any enthusiastic purchaser with considerable scope for continued growth, not least with regard to exploiting all the increased volume of patronage lightly to be generated by the introduction of Class VII MOT services and to operating weekend hours in order to exploit the full potential capacity of its facilities.

The business would also benefit greatly by adopting a more vigorous marketing policy of its excellent existing services, both through a new dedicated website which is currently under construction and to further development of its social media presence, in order to improve upon the already high levels of turnover it is achieving in the hands of the current director, with the aid of an experienced and motivated team of four full-time staff who would be an asset to any purchaser, and we would strongly recommend the earliest possible viewing to avoid disappointment.

Affording easy vehicle access by means of large, full-height industrial roller shutters to the front and rear, these substantial and extremely well maintained, single-storey freehold detached commercial premises provide recently superbly refurbished internal business accommodation, which consists of bright and spacious, split-level front and rear workshop areas with concrete flooring, high apex ceilings with glazed roof lights, diffused fluorescent lighting, tool storage racking and workbench area.

Both the workshop areas are equipped to high industry specifications with a full complement of modern and well maintained, industry standard plant including 2 x vehicle ramps, a full complement of tyre fitting and wheel balancing equipment and a dedicated Class IV MOT bay with a full range of state-of-the-art testing and “Snap-On” diagnostic equipment, all of which we understand is to be included in the sale price and further details of which will be made available upon request to any genuine interested parties.

Accessed directly from the workshop area, or by means of its own separate public/personnel entrance, the premises also incorporate a bright, welcoming, fully furnished and computerised client reception, general administration and MOT office with seating for waiting customers, an MOT viewing area and full complement of telephone lines, internet links and industry-specific business management systems.

Further ancillary internal business accommodation consists of a fully fitted and furnished staff kitchen/restroom area, together with all the usual washroom/WC facilities.

The property also enjoys the benefit of a full mains electricity power supply, in addition to the added security benefit of a full alarm system.
