O'Connell House, Mountmellick, Co Laois

/INCREDIBLE VALUE/THERE'S NO CATCH/PRICE REFLECTS A QUICK SALE PREFERENCE/

Welcome to O'Connell House - a flagship property situated on the famous O'Connell Square in the heart of Mountmellick town. This imposing building stands on a site in excess of 0.404 ha (c.1 acre) and has vast potential for a variety of uses.

Mountmellick town in the county of Laois is only minutes from the M7 motorway which provides a direct link to the M50. All amenities are adjacent with shops, pubs, restaurants and banks sharing the thoroughfare. The town has a long association with the Quaker community dating back to the nineteenth century and indeed, O'Connell house dates back to the early 1800's.

The house is currently laid out to accommodate bedsits but lends itself well to be restored to its former glory as a prestigious town residence. Equally, it may be suitable for use as a boutique hotel, a market house or other commercial ventures subject to the necessary planning permission. The accommodation extends to over 400 square meters and is outlined further on in this brochure.

A coach entrance under an archway to the rear yard provides access to the stunning gardens which are so unique to find in the centre of a busy town.

Externally to the rear, there are three adjoining and interconnecting own door apartments/bedsits. They are very suitable for further residential accommodation of offices. There are also open sheds which would be suitable for a variety of uses.

To the far side of the rear courtyard are the buildings which once housed the Mountmellick bakery. These buildings were constructed in the early part of the 20th century. The building comes complete with the disused oven. The bakery extends to 220 square meters and would be suitable for use as a bakery, an enterprise unit, a market, workshop etc.

This is an excellent opportunity for a discerning purchaser to enjoy the current favourable market conditions and secure a landmark building at a fraction of the value witnessed three years ago.
