The site is zoned for employment use and “represents one of the most significant mixed-use development opportunities in the central Scotland market”.

The agent said: “The location benefits from immediate proximity to Sheriffhall Park and Ride and Shawfair Station on the Borders Railway line, providing direct services to Edinburgh Waverley. Edinburgh City Centre and Edinburgh Airport are both within a 20-minute drive, ensuring excellent connectivity for future occupiers.

“The site comprises a level site with multiple access points. It offers scope for large-scale commercial, industrial and motor dealerships subject to planning. The site is further enhanced by Transport Scotland’s committed upgrade to the Sheriffhall Interchange, which will improve traffic flow and accessibility across the region.”

The industrial market across central Scotland continues to face a “significant shortage of available accommodation for industrial, warehouse and manufacturing uses”, the agent said.

Bryce Stewart, senior director at CBRE Scotland, said: “This is a rare opportunity to secure a development site of genuine scale and strategic importance within the Scotland market. Sheriffhall Interchange is already a key transport hub for the city and wider region, and with the planned infrastructure improvements it will only become more attractive to occupiers and investors.

“With strong connectivity, proximity to Edinburgh’s workforce and flexibility for a range of employment uses, we expect significant interest from both national and international parties.”

The site is positioned at the junction of the A7, the Edinburgh City Bypass and the A6106, and a short distance from the A1, “offering direct access to key regional and national transport routes”.
