Beech Lawn, Ballytrasna, Little Island, Cork

ERA Downey McCarthy Auctioneers are delighted to present to the market this most strategic site, extending to c.0.19 Ha. (0.45 acres), situated in a most prominent location adjacent to An Crompán roundabout in Little Island, Cork. The site is generally level and rectangular in shape and boundaries are clearly defined in concrete blockwork or natural hedging. There is one point of vehicular access directly from the R623, while the north, south and east boundaries immediately adjoin Castleview and Euro Business Park, Little Island.

The only building presently on the site comprises a detached dormer style residence of standard construction supporting a pitched tiled roof with flat asphalt covered dormers at front and rear. We are of the opinion that the likely purchaser of this property will be a commercial entity to which this existing residential building will be of little interest. The location, shape and zoning of this site would suggest that it will not remain in private residential use.

The currently available on-line version of the Draft Cork County Development 2022 – 2028 indicates that that the entire property is zoned ZU 18 – 10 Mixed / General Business / Industrial Uses. The purpose of this zoning is to facilitate development that supports in general the employment uses of the Existing Mixed / General Business / Industrial Areas. Development that does not support, or threatens the vitality or integrity of the employment uses of these areas shall not be permitted.

Appropriate uses within this zoning include general warehousing, trade warehousing and distribution, manufacturing and repairs, storage, builder’s provider / yard, food processing facility, logistics, fitting and business to business activity, wholesaling, vehicle sales outlets, high technology manufacturing, plant and tool hire, public services, service station, vehicle servicing / maintenance garage, incubator units and childcare facilities.

The property is close to a host of amenities as well as a number of business parks and industrial estates including: Eastgate, Euro Business Park, Little Island Industrial Estate and Waterfront Business Park. The property is also within close proximity to major Cork employers such as Janssen Pharmaceuticals, PepsiCo, Laya Healthcare and Eli Lilly.

There is a garden area which is laid to lawn and which has mature shrubs and plants abound. The front of the property has a porch area.
