Summary - 293, HIGH STREET KY1 1JH
1 bed 1 bath Commercial Property
Large, visible retail unit with strong security and low running costs.
Prime High Street location beside Adam Smith mural
Set on Kirkcaldy High Street in the historic Merchants Quarter, this substantial 1,330 sq ft commercial unit offers a highly visible shopfront beside the Adam Smith mural and close to the harbour promenade. The main retail area is bright and fitted with high-quality slatwall displays, making it immediately trade-ready for retail, salon, office or creative uses.
The property includes strong security features—roller shutters, decorative cast iron gates and an alarm—and benefits from excellent local parking with multiple car parks nearby plus on-street spaces opposite. The rateable value sits under the Small Business Bonus threshold, meaning qualifying occupiers should expect very low business rates.
There is clear upside through modest refurbishment: the rear storeroom is basic and would benefit from upgrading to increase usable space or rental value. The building shows period character but requires some modernization in parts; the listing notes recent damp-proofing and an EPC rating of A. Tenure information is unknown and a buyer’s premium may be payable on purchase—this should be confirmed early in due diligence.
This unit is best suited to investors seeking a high-yield town centre asset or an operator wanting prominent High Street premises with immediate display potential. Note the wider area records high deprivation, which buyers should factor into rental and operating assumptions despite the site’s strong footfall and regeneration funding nearby.
