Description

Excellent opportunity to acquire a unique property located on the prestigious Church Road in Athy, Co Kildare. The property comprises of Folio 1068 extending to .67 hectares including- • Athy Lodge, a period residence with stone outbuildings R14 K162 • Detached Medical Centre which was recently operational. R14 EP84 Athy is a Heritage market town just one hour south of Dublin with link access to M9 (exit 3) and rail access from Athy Train Station (2 minutes walk) on the Dublin/Waterford line. The property is located on the junction of Church Road and Mount Offaly, the Athy/Carlow Road (R417) which is in close proximity to the town centre. Church Road is a superb, sought-after location with buildings of great character including the Church of Ireland, The Rectory, Athy Train Station and the Peoples Park which was gifted by the Duke of Leinster in the mid 1800’s to the people of Athy. The census 2016 records a population of 9,677 which is expected to expand as detailed in the Local Area Development Plan 2021-2027. The long-awaited commencement of the Athy Distributer Road will deliver a new infrastructure for Athy town, with a second bridge over the river Barrow, located quite close to Athy Lodge. This project will enhance the regeneration projects completed and those proposed for the town, embracing the historic, architectural, and natural heritage of Athy. Church Road is just a short walk to natural spaces such as the River Barrow and the Barrow Line Canal which connects with the newly developed Blueway. The Local Area Plan details a vision for the development and regeneration of this historic town with a prioritisation of residential development within the town centre once the design is sympathetic to the character of the area. DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY Athy Lodge offers an excellent opportunity to acquire a prime development site suitable for occupiers as well as investors and developers. The superb location in close proximity to Athy train station offers great potential for a small exclusive residential/commercial development. Athy Lodge is in need of considerable restoration however the medical centre was operational up to 2021 and is presented in good condition. The adjoining stone out buildings built around an enclosed space offers scope for further development. The property is identified in the Architectural Conservation Area and is listed- Reference (RPS No) AY109 11505175 (NIAH Ref) Church Road Athy.
