The ground floor car showroom has an extensive frontage onto Gorgie Road and is part of a five storey building constructed in the late 1970s. The four upper floors, known as Stevenson House are in separate ownership.
Behind the main building is the main workshop area built in three sections of steel portal frame construction with pitched roofs.
The building is clad in profiled metal to the walls and roofs and it has good natural lighting from roof lights. An electronically operated roller shutter door gives access.
The staircase from the workshop gives internal access to the lower ground floor which is substantially used as a car showroom. The main access from Gorgie Road serves the property and office car park and there is dedicated car parking exclusively serving the property.

The property has a prominent main road position on Gorgie Road (A71), the main arterial road running from central Edinburgh to the city bypass, the south-west and the Ayrshire Coast. The property is less than two miles from Edinburgh city centre and it is in a mixed use location. There are several well established car dealerships in the immediate location including Audi, Peugeot and Renault, and the property is also suited to retail, retail warehouse or trade counter type use.
