Please note this property will be offered by online auction (unless sold prior). For auction date and time please visit iamsoldni.com. Vendors may decide to accept pre-auction bids so please register your interest with us to avoid disappointment.

Ground Floor

The current property comprises of two co-joining businesses on the ground floor, a currently trading hot food take-away business and the co-joining Café (the Café is not currently trading). Both businesses are at the front of the building facing towards Carnlough bay. The back area of the ground floor consists of a kitchen and preparation area, toilet facilities and storage area. Further back there is a further preparation area, which currently hosts industrial fridges/freezers.

Back Driveway/Garden Area – serving the property, giving access to the back of the Commercial Business and Residential Property

Both properties are served by a driveway with gate that leads to the back of the property with parking space provided. Further back from the driveway there is a good-sized garden.

First Floor Residential Living Area

The first floor is accessed via a front door at the back of the property. Upon walking into the property from the ground floor back door (served separately from the commercial business), there is a hallway leading to a doorway that leads upstairs. There is a utility room to the right of the residential property’s door access, this can serve the commercial business and/or the residential property. Moving up the stairs into the residential property, there are five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen/dining area and reception room (the reception room has excellent views over Carnlough bay). The property has a further converted loft room with further potential to be extended.

The Property’s Future Potential

This property has vast potential for redevelopment of the current commercial/residential status. The current two businesses could be adapted/enhanced to create two separate business entities or to further build on the current hot food takeaway/Café set up which is currently in place. There is much potential for a revamp of this property into a successful all year-round business (with an excellent reputation of over 40 years) , with a five-bedroom residential home attached. There is also the potential to adapt the residential area into short term holiday lettings, or long-term.

Investment and Redevelopment

This property has the potential for total redevelopment of the whole property, such as several flats or townhouses. The famous Antrim coast has seen a lot of investment in recent years. Carnlough itself is going through a lot of redevelopments with investment projects underway in a few locations.

Out House with Further Development Opportunities

There is the opportunity to buy a further outhouse building with this property. This outhouse can be used as a storage facility for the businesses. Alternatively, it could be redeveloped into a further property. Furthermore, there is potential to knock this building down to create more parking spaces between the garden area, the outhouse building and the commercial/residential building.
