2.25-acre freehold site with consent for 21,684 sq ft light industrial development..
Full planning for 13 light industrial units (1,668 sq ft each)
A substantial 2.25-acre freehold development site in Johnstone with full planning consent for 13 light industrial units (total developable GIA 21,684 sq ft). The consented scheme offers a ready route to deliver small industrial/workspace units each of 1,668 sq ft, attractive to local SMEs and trade occupiers. Excellent local connectivity — close to the A737, regular bus services on Beith Road and Milliken Park rail station within walking distance — supports commercial occupier demand.
The site sits opposite schools and community facilities, and previous/plausible alternative consents include 26 residential units and outline permission for a care home, indicating flexibility subject to planning. Utilities and good digital connectivity are reported (excellent mobile signal, fast broadband), and the site has no recorded flood risk.
Material considerations: the parcel is in an area of higher deprivation which can affect rental and sales values and may influence tenant mix. Development of this size in a residential neighbourhood will require careful stakeholder engagement and potentially additional planning works for alternative uses. The land’s current condition/build costs and any required remediation or service connections are not specified, so buyers should complete technical due diligence and consult Renfrewshire Council planning for queries.
This opportunity suits developers or investors seeking a sizeable, consented industrial scheme in a well-connected suburban location with clear alternative-use potential if different planning is pursued. The asking price reflects a large, flexible site with immediate planning delivery potential but with typical on-site and planning risks to factor into feasibility work.
