Description
Situated on the outskirts of Swords,
close to Dublin Airport.
c. 21 Acres / 8.5 Hectares,
Brazil, The Leas,
SWORDS,
Co Dublin.
Property:
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a regularly shaped parcel of ground measuring c. 21 Acres / 8.5 Hectares, laid out in two fields and benefitting from good road frontage to the R108, Ballyboughal Road. TheR108 connects Drogheda with Dublin City Centre via Beamore, Naul, Ballyboughal, Dublin Airport and Balltmun. The land is currently under grass and, we are advised, has been for many years. On the day of our inspection horses were grazing the land.
Location
The property is situated with good frontage along the R108, Ballyboughal Road, and whilst currently zoned Green Belt, it is only two fields removed from residential zoning at Mooretown and Swords Community College. The property, which is proximate to both Dublin Airport and Swords is most easily accessed by travelling from Swords along the Brackenstown Road (L2030) to The Leas Cross (R108) and turning right signposted for Naul & Ballyboughal. The land is situated on your right-hand side after c. 800m.
Alternatively proceed from Swords Castle along Rathbeale Rd (R125), passing developments at Millers Glen and Mooretown, to the intersection with the R108 signposted for St. Margarets and The Airport. Turn left, towards Dublin Airport, and proceed for c. 1.2km to the land on your left-hand side.
Area:
We are advised the land measures c. 21 Acres / 8.5 Hectarres and provide this for information purposes only. Intending purchasers must independently satisfy themselves as to the correct acreage.
Zoning:
Under the current Fingal Development Plan 2023-2029 the property is Zoned “GB” Rural: “Protect and provide for a Greenbelt”. There is also a road proposal affecting these lands which appears to have been first introduced in the 2011-2017 Fingal Development Plan.
The below uses are permitted in principle under this zoning, intending purchasers must seek their own independent professional advice with regard to all planning matters.
