On the Waterfront

A mixed-use development site with completed first phase in West Cork’s top tourist hub of Clonakilty is for sale with agents Lisney for €1.2m.

There are seven acres, with water-frontage to the inner bay, in a site acquired from the GAA by developers Hillback in 2005, for around €9m. The deal enabled the town’s GAA club to move to top, new facilities on 22 acres, just west of the town at Ahamilla.

Investment to date at the Waterfront site, on the N71 relief road, stands at €20m: it was to hold a €40m overall development of new, town facilities to include 60,000 sq ft of commercial buildings, and 150 residential units, mainly apartments.
