Description
Exceptional Town Centre Redevelopment Opportunity Site Area c. 0.25 Ha / 0.6175 Acre, 6, 8, & 10 Drogheda Street, Balbriggan, Co. Dublin. LOCATION Balbriggan is one of North County Dublin's most dynamic and fastest-growing coastal towns, offering seaside charm, strong transport connectivity, and investment momentum. Positioned as a gateway town on the Dublin-Belfast economic corridor the town enjoys frequent commuter bus & rail services to Dublin city centre, alongside excellent road connections via the M1 to Dublin City, Dublin Airport, and the wider national motorway network via the M50 orbital route. Balbriggan is currently the focus of a major €25.4 million Government-backed regeneration programme, including a €15 million harbour redevelopment transforming the waterfront into a vibrant new public space which will significantly enhance the town's amenities, commercial vitality, and long-term appeal for residents and visitors. The town's coastal identity is its greatest assets. Balbriggan Beach, Harbour & Lighthouse, framed by the town's iconic eleven-arch railway viaduct, offers a sandy playground just steps from the town centre with trawlers coming and going from the harbour saluting the towns history. It is also exceptionally well served by sports and community clubs reflecting a strong, active community across all ages. Further amenities include The Lark Theatre, Friday market, Cinema, library, nearby Ardgillan Castle, parkland golf course and coastal walking trails. Home to Ireland's youngest, fastest growing and most diverse population, Balbriggan combines history, coastal identity and genuine forward momentum making it an increasingly attractive location for builders and investors.
