Description
A truly rare and unrivalled opportunity — this prime site is literally steps from the shorefront in the heart of
Omeath and just meters from Omeath Pier, giving it a location that is second to none. Positioned directly on
the water’s edge, it boasts uninterrupted views across Carlingford Lough and beyond — a truly unique
setting with an unmistakable connection to the sea.
This is a rare redevelopment opportunity, featuring two derelict cottages both ideal for refurbishment under
the Vacant Property Grant, adding significant value potential for buyers or developers.
Set on a generous, mature plot with established trees, the site offers a naturally scenic backdrop with
exceptional scope for development.
Due to the proximity of existing properties to the rear, it is ideally suited for a high-density scheme (subject
to planning permission). Alternatively, it presents a superb opportunity for a bespoke custom-built home
with space for all modern lifestyle needs — again, subject to relevant permissions.
This location forms part of a broader network of waterways and historic landmarks. With Newry Canal,
Omeath Pier and Warrenpoint Harbour nearby, the site offers direct access to a maritime corridor —
effectively opening a gateway to the Irish Sea.
Breath-taking views take in the guiding lights of Cornamucklagh’s iconic round tower, the historic Narrow
Water Castle and Keep, the coastal town of Warrenpoint and the dramatic Mourne Mountains rising
beyond.
Strategically positioned, this property enjoys excellent connectivity — just minutes from Carlingford town
and Newry city, with an easy commute to both Dublin and Belfast.
And with the Narrow Water Bridge nearing completion, this already well-connected site will soon benefit
from even faster access across Carlingford Lough, placing the Mournes and the wider region within easy
reach.
