Balado Radar Station

MoD & Mega Golf-Ball Property

Whole Site: Offers Over £950,000.


Former RAF Balado Bridge, Balado, Kinross, KY13 0NJ.

This radar station is a place we have driven past many times. Last night (24/3/21) the owner telephoned the director of this website out of the blue. It was a very pleasant surprise, especially as our sister company (here) is looking to create as many jobs as possible to help folk when we all eventually come out of this pandemic and we need to locate suitable sites to build new format places of work that are covid-safe. Estimates range between 600,000 and 800,000 people becoming jobless. Many of whom have worked solidly from the day they left school, college or university.

“Since the crisis began, 693,000 payroll jobs have disappeared, including 368,000 in hotels, restaurants and pubs, and 123,000 in shops.”

At Unique Property Bulletin we see an impressive site here where many jobs can be created.

It just takes the right person with vision and ability to get the ball rolling.

Someone, or some company is going to get a site with great potential at offers over £950,000 (freehold).

Indeed our Unique Property Bulletin website has the director’s of its sister website over at Scotslion (here) looking at ways to help the owner of Balado Radar Station secure an exit-route whereby their are new jobs located at this site as the country emerges from this very dark 12 to 24 month s of Covid and lockdowns. For sure we shall need to as many new jobs as possible.

The most notable part is the Radome. Colloquially known as a big golf ball for obvious reasons.  RAF Balado Bridge is now an iconic Perthshire landmark close to the villages of Kinross and Milnathort. The ideal location for commuting throughout east central Scotland with the M90 a five minute drive away.

The Unique Property Bulletin rebooted this publication in 2017 and between our subscribers have more than sufficient to buy a major slice of this unusual site.

There has certainly been some interesting discussions here about end use for this site.

Last for this segment, if any of our current Unique Property Syndicate folk would like to consider this owning a large slice of this former MoD base as a candidate property to build/convert a part for their own home, please feel free to get in touch via the normal channels (click here).
