Shanagarry workshop is a €250k turnkey opportunity

Kilmahon Workshop, in the East Cork village of Shanagarry, is attracting strong interest, with biding well above the €250k guide.

Bids have been flying in for a substantial workshop premises in the popular East Cork coastal village of Shanagarry, where offers are well in excess of the guide price of €250,000.

Previously used by the vendor as a workshop to build bespoke kitchen cabinetry, it comes to market following the retirement of the owner — who was both a carpenter and builder.

Right beside the old Stephen Pearce pottery workshop and down the road from the Kilkenny shop and cafe in the Shanagarry Design Centre, selling agent Adrianna Hegarty, of Hegarty Properties, said it’s “right in the heart of Shanagarry village”.

Known as Kilmahon Workshop, a freehold commercial premises, it includes a large, 4,000sq ft, open-plan main workspace suitable for machinery, fabrication, assembly, studio, or storage.

There’s an office and kitchen/canteen, as well as toilet facilities on the premises.

Ms Hegarty said the 25-year-old premises presents “a rare and flexible commercial opportunity suitable for a range of uses including light industrial, artisan production, creative studio, storage, trades workspace, micro-enterprise, or specialist workshop (subject to any necessary planning consents).

“Given the rise of remote enterprise, craft-based manufacturing, trades, agri-repurposing, wellness and digital-native businesses, this property represents an exciting turnkey asset with long-term potential in a location synonymous with creativity and rural enterprise,” Ms Hegarty added.

Ms Hegarty said the premises is also suitable for renovation or reconfiguration, subject to planning permission.

As it’s on a 0.46acre site and is within the village bounds, the possibility of building a house is also worth examining for potential buyers.

Bidding is currently gone above €300,000.

The site comes with potential for parking or yard usage.

The unit is fully powered, fully plumbed, and is fire compliant.

The location has good connectivity to other nearby towns including Cloyne (seven minutes), Midleton (15 minutes) and Cork City (about 35 minutes).

Shanagarry is home to a diverse community of residents, entrepreneurs, and creatives, along with hospitality, food, craft and leisure amenities including Ballymaloe House, Ballymaloe Cookery School, The Kilkenny Shop, Stephen Pearce Pottery, and Garryvoe Beach.
