Two Cork sites available sitting on the dock of the bay

Two seminal Cork harbour mixed-use development sites with waterfrontage, in Crosshaven and in Passage West, come to the open market this week, being disposed of by the Doyle Shipping Group, and worth over €8m combined.

The duo are nine acres at Crosshaven Boatyard, with the bulk capable of mixed development including possibly over 120 houses and guided at €4.5m/€5 million by Peter O’Flynn of Cushman & Wakefield, plus, separately, the Victoria Dockyard, in Passage West, previously owned by the Hill family, later by Howard Holdings, guided at €3.5m.

The Passage West site, once the Royal Victoria Dockyard and which built timber, and later on, steel ships from the 1830s to the 1930s, holds huge potential for the rejuvenation of the harbour town, and is zoned for mixed use/town centre expansion with scope for uses including residential, retail/supermarket and amenity leisure uses.
