New partitions will be installed to split the interior into three distinct parts: a main office space, a separate meeting room, and a staff room with toilet facilities.
A new entrance ramp will be installed to make the office accessible and two new windows will be installed to provide natural light within the building.
The plan is for the office space to be used by Highland Council’s housing team.
