The Highland Council has invited private/commercial buyers and community led organisations to express interest in a redevelopment opportunity at 3-5 Courthouse Lane in Nairn.

Planned to be offered for sale in early 2024, the council has also said that it may consider a Community Asset Transfer (CAT) to a community led organisation.

The property is located on Courthouse Lane, near to Nairn High Street with amenities and parking close by. Built in 1848, the property is a blond sandstone, Grade B listed building extending to approximately 98.00 sq m (1,055 sq ft), together with an area for parking to the front. Most recently the property has been used as an office within Class 4 of the Town and Country Planning (Use Classes) (Scotland) Order 1997. However, the property may be suitable for a variety of alternative uses, subject to planning.
