Christie & Co is marketing a large day nursery building in Edinburgh.

Formerly trading as Harrison Park Day Nursery, which was registered with the Care Inspectorate to care for up to 105 children, the nursery closed its doors in September 2019 and has been vacant ever since.

The property comprises a two-storey extended building of traditional sandstone construction with a pitched slate roof and dormer windows.

It boasts multiple, well-sized playrooms, a staffroom, a cloakroom, a baby changing room, kitchen space, toilets, a utility room for washing and drying facilities, and a large garden area with a fenced boundary.

The site is located in the vibrant and well-connected area of Polwarth, Edinburgh, which has convenient transport links and good access to the M8.

Callum Lancaster, business sgent for childcare and education at Christie & Co, said: “This is a rare opportunity for either an existing operator looking to expand, or a new entrant into the sector wanting to acquire their first setting.

“The landlord is open to negotiations regarding rent and the rental structure, particularly as the nursery develops to a more-established level.

“Our client is seeking a tenant for a long-term, fully-repairing and insuring lease, presenting an opportunity to acquire a vacant unit with significant potential and minimal development requirements for conversion into a successful children’s day nursery, subject to Care Inspectorate registration.

“Our clients will also consider a freehold acquisition of the setting.”
