Prime Town Centre Development Opportunity, 269-293 High Street, Cowdenbeath, KY4 9QH

1.44 acres / Land / Mixed Use

Withdrawn - Last updated: 09 November 2021

This is a significant town centre development site and the adopted Mid Fife Local Plan January 2012 allocates this site for “…mixed-use redevelopment. A mix of retail and residential uses is desirable and office/service uses may also be appropriate within a mix of uses. There is a presumption in favour of retail use on the High Street frontage but a range of alternative uses, including bars, restaurants, leisure, hotel, office and residential will be considered within the development.”

Location

Cowdenbeath is a large town in South West Fife with a resident population of some 11,600 inhabitants. It sits adjacent to the A72, some 6 miles (9km) north east of Dunfermline, 8 miles (13km) west of Kirkcaldy and 18 miles (29km) north of Edinburgh.

The town enjoys an attractive and accessible location and is well served in terms of shops, including a Morrisons supermarket, schools and other services. Local leisure and community facilities include a leisure centre, health centre, library, golf course and both indoor and outdoor sports pitches/facilities.

Cowdenbeath is readily accessible by road via the A92/M90. The drive time to Dunfermline is typically around 10 minutes, to Kirkcaldy around 15 minutes and to Edinburgh around 30 minutes.

Regular bus services are available from the town centre to a variety of local and regional destinations. The subject site sits on a central location on the High Street in Cowdenbeath and sits adjacent to Cowdenbeath railway station, which is on the Fife Circle Line and where mainline railway connections are available. Edinburgh Airport is also within easy reach.

TOWN CENTRE REGENERATION

Cowdenbeath town centre is the heart of the town and a priority for growth. An increased diversification and mix of current uses will bring more activity into the centre and create a unique and individual environment to stand out as a great place to visit.

We would look to support new uses (retail, leisure, commercial) that would complement and strengthen the established economic core of Cowdenbeath town centre.

Accommodation
