The past year brought challenges, but our adaptability and focus on strategic opportunities have enabled us to navigate a shifting landscape and pursue impactful site acquisitions. Our commitment to sustainability, and community value continues to drive our success.
Celebrating a Diverse Portfolio
West Coast Estates takes pride in its recent achievements and is excited to share updates on several key projects that are shaping communities and enhancing local landscapes.
Linnorie, Huntly

We continue to work diligently behind the scenes at Linnorie, collaborating closely with occupier’s and contractors to bring this exciting project to life. Our focus remains on ensuring every aspect aligns with our vision for a vibrant, community-centered space. We look forward to sharing further updates soon as plans progress toward delivering this much-anticipated development.
North Kessock, Inverness

We anticipate a successful planning outcome for this dynamic project, which will feature EV charging, retail, and a restaurant. This development will be a great addition to the community, offering a place to shop, meet and eat. Discussions are already underway with prospective occupiers, signalling strong interest in this transformative opportunity.
Broxden, Perth
West Coast Estates are actively engaging with stakeholders and progressing plans to deliver this dynamic project. Further updates will follow as we continue to move forward with this exciting development.
Ellon

We are delighted to share that planning approval has been successfully secured for a McDonald’s in Ellon. This much-needed amenity will bring significant benefits to the town, meeting local demand and providing new opportunities. We aim to commence on-site work in 2025.
New Developments on the Horizon
West Coast Estates is excited to announce progress on several transformative projects across Scotland:
- St Andrews
This 4.5-acre greenfield site is set to deliver a mix of retail, industrial units, and office opportunities in one of Scotland’s most prestigious and sought-after locations. It’s an exciting opportunity to bring innovative and sustainable solutions to a vibrant community. - Woodside, Aberdeen
Spanning 6.5 acres, this brownfield site—one of 65 identified as vacant and derelict in Aberdeen—will be transformed into a thriving neighbourhood scheme. The project will bring jobs, investment, and a much-needed revitalisation to the area.
Joint Ventures and Partnerships
West Coast Estates has a proven track record in successfully delivering impactful joint ventures, showcasing our ability to collaborate effectively with landowners and occupiers. Our experience and expertise make us a strong and reliable partner for those seeking to unlock the potential of their land or assets. Recent examples of our joint ventures include W-Zero 2 Altens Aberdeen, and Linnorie Huntly, where we worked closely with stakeholders to create meaningful developments that deliver long-term value.
One notable partnership is the comprehensive refurbishment of a 20,000 sq ft warehouse and yard on a 2-acre site at 1A Minto Drive.

This Joint Venture with Energy Transition Zone (ETZ) exemplifies our commitment to sustainable innovation, incorporating net-zero principles and forward-thinking design.
At West Coast Estates, we are always open to exploring new opportunities for joint ventures and partnerships. Whether you’re a landowner, occupier, or investor, we’d be delighted to discuss how we can work together to create exceptional projects that benefit communities and stakeholders alike.
Looking Ahead: 2025 and Beyond
As we enter 2025, West Coast Estates is energised by the opportunities ahead. With a strong pipeline of projects and high-profile sites under discussion, we’re eager to continue pushing boundaries and delivering innovative developments. Our focus remains on creating vibrant roadside and community-centric spaces across Scotland, while embracing new opportunities that align with our vision for sustainable, inclusive growth.
We’re excited to build on the solid foundations laid in 2024, working collaboratively with our partners, stakeholders, and communities to bring transformative projects to life. The year ahead promises to be one of ambition, progress, and meaningful impact, and we are ready to seize the possibilities that lie ahead.
A heartfelt thank you goes out to our dedicated team and valued collaborators who continue to make our success possible. Together, we look forward to shaping a bright and prosperous 2025—one that leaves a lasting legacy for the communities we serve.
Here’s to a prosperous year ahead!
