Fife Council has approved an application from Mr Humayun Saleem to convert the former DM Design building in Whytescauseway. The two-storey commercial unit has sat empty for some time, and was sold after being put on the market with a fixed price of £180,000.
Mr Saleem, from Whytescauseway, has secured permission for a change of use for part of the rear and first floor of the shop to create eight flats. His plans include replacement roofing, and adding a gate and fence.
