Lot: 1,
Mornington, Mornington, Co. Meath
The property comprises a greenfield corner site extending to c.2.05 acres and has the benefit of primary frontage onto the R151 just off Garra Road and adjoins the Seaview Park residential estate on the eastern boundary. The site is zoned A1 - 'Existing Residential' as per the Meath County Development Plan with the primary objective being to protect and enhance the amenity and character of existing residential communities. We understand that the site is serviced with mains water (100 mm PvC) and foul sewage and surface water drains to the rear (It is the responsibility of interested parties to conduct their own due diligence regarding the availability and adequacy of services). Due to the strategic and prime location of this site and close proximity to existing commercial properties, this site presents a fantastic opportunity for a wide range of commercial uses - subject to the necessary planning permission.
Mornington has seen dynamic growth over the past two decades, with a significant rise in both population and housing. This surge is fuelled by a winning combination of factors: its scenic coastal setting and expansive beachfront, its location along a convenient commuter rail line, and its close proximity to Dublin, Drogheda, the M1 motorway, and Dublin Airport. As a result, the area has evolved into a popular commuter hub. However, this rapid growth has not been matched by a rise in local employment opportunities, and the expansion of social and community infrastructure has struggled to keep pace.
Mornington East, the northernmost part of East Meath, is a well-established residential area, characterised by a collection of housing developments accessed from the Coast Road and Garra Road. While the area is known for its settled and community-focused feel, there has been little in the way of new development in recent years.
The subject site in located on the R151, just off the L5614 Garra Road and adjoins Harrys Centra/Texaco Garage and is clearly identified by our James L. Murtagh Sales Boards.
