The development site previously occupied by the Hotel Seaforth in Arbroath, Scotland, is to be sold by McManus Property Ltd.
The site extends to 1.5 acres and is for sale or lease. The current owner Steven Smith of Seaforth Properties Ltd acquired the hotel from Bill Rennie and his wife Sandra, early in 2006.
The property perished in a fire in August 2006, after numerous failed attempts to gain planning permission to turn the sea-facing site into a hotel and flats. It was torn down weeks later after the fire.
Speaking to the Arbroath Herald, agent Jonathan McManus of McManus Property Consultants said: “In relation to the site, my client, Seaforth Investments, and our team have been working on several schemes in the hope of attracting interest from hoteliers, restaurateurs and other leisure users, as per the planning guidance previously received from the local planning authority.”
Opinions on future use of the land are divided. Some say a hotelier with ambitions to build should buy it, while others believe that for the right price Angus Council might buy it and integrate the site into its surroundings on the seafront.
The sale is welcome news to local councillor Alex King who said, “Arbroath desperately needs more high quality tourist accommodation."
