Director and Auctioneer Sam Kinloch said: “I was not surprised to see this freehold investment opportunity acquired.
“Although the property would now benefit from some refurbishment work, we considered it ideal for continued investment or possible resale once refurbished.
“Following any improvements, and in line with the current tenancy agreements, it is also considered there may be scope for a rental increase.”
