Description
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 rare redevelopment opportunity has a scenic backdrop and features two derelict cottages both ideal for refurbishment under the Vacant Property Grant. 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 subject to relevant permissions.
The 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.
Strategically positioned the property enjoys excellent connectivity just minutes from Carlingford town and Newry city, with an easy commute to both Dublin and Belfast. 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.
