This rarely available plot of land with Planning consent is located in the Upper Cartsburn Area of Greenock, offering excellent potential for development and is available to purchase through Bowman Rebecchi - The Home of Property.
Extending to approximately 2.2 acres, the elevated Upper Cartsburn site represents a rare and compelling development opportunity within one of the area’s designated priority regeneration locations.
Full planning consent was granted in 2023 for a high-quality commercial development designed to establish a vibrant and modern industrial estate. The approved scheme includes one principal industrial unit extending to approximately 6,500 sq ft, alongside a smaller building subdivided into three units of approximately 600 sq ft each, offering flexibility for a range of commercial occupiers and strong potential for diversified rental income.
Positioned along the eastern boundary of Wellington Bowling Club, the development has been carefully designed to integrate with the surrounding area while retaining a public access path, ensuring continued community connectivity.
The site itself is rectangular in form, with modest projections to the upper east and west boundaries, and occupies a commanding elevated position. This setting provides open views across the River Clyde and towards Greenock town centre, enhancing both the market appeal and placemaking potential of the development.
With planning permission secured, infrastructure considerations established, and a prominent river-facing setting, the opportunity offers a highly de-risked entry into the commercial property market within the strengthening west of Scotland economy.
Commercial property in the Inverclyde area continues to experience strong demand, and sites of this scale and readiness are rarely brought to market, making this an exceptional opportunity for the right developer or investor.
A comprehensive suite of planning and supporting documentation is available to interested parties. Early enquiries and viewing are strongly encouraged.
