Shepherd Chartered Surveyors has been instructed to market the former headquarters of local solicitors and estate agency firm Blackadders, with the potential for existing office use or possible residential conversion.
Blackadders has been in occupation of the building for over 80 years but recently announced it will be moving a short distance into the recently refurbished DC Thomson building on Meadowside.
The property comprises a substantial traditional office extending to 23,900 sq. ft. within two adjoining city centre ‘B’ listed buildings on the west side of Reform Street within the designated retail core of Dundee city centre.
The Overgate Shopping Centre and adjoining multistorey car park, well-established as the principal retailing destination within Tayside, is located to the rear of the buildings.
Gavin Russell, Associate at Shepherd in Dundee, said: “At present, the buildings comprise extensive office space over four floors located within the designated Dundee Central Conservation Area.
“Alternative use may be possible, such as serviced apartments/accommodation or private/rented residential conversion, subject to obtaining local authority planning and listed building consent.”
