Summary
The owner of a flat at 80 Dee Street is applying to use it as short-term let accommodation — similar to an Airbnb-style rental. Up to two guests could stay at any one time. No physical changes to the building are proposed. The flat is in a busy part of Aberdeen's Torry/Ferryhill ward, surrounded by 89 properties within 200 metres. The Hebrew Congregation Synagogue is directly next door. Ferryhill School is a few minutes' walk away, and Aberdeen Bus Station is about a 5–10 minute walk. Because the occupancy is capped at two people, the scale of any impact would be small. However, short-term lets could mean visitors coming and going at varied times, which may affect the settled feel of the building for permanent residents.
