About this property
Description
Prime Development Opportunity in the Heart of Knightstown – full granted planning permission - 4 units An exceptional opportunity to acquire a centrally located development site in Knightstown, on the beautiful Valentia Island. Near the picturesque harbour, this property combines a premium location with outstanding development potential in one of Kerry’s most scenic and rapidly growing destinations. The site currently contains an existing older building, formerly operated as a restaurant, offering a footprint for redevelopment. A significant advantage is the fully granted planning permission for four contemporary residential units, with a total planned floor area of approximately 402 sq.m. The design has been carefully developed to meet modern standards of living, allowing for an immediate start to construction. Importantly, the existing planning permission can be adapted to suit alternative concepts, subject to approval, making this an ideal opportunity for investors seeking flexibility. Given the site’s history and location, there is strong potential for commercial or mixed-use redevelopment, further enhancing its appeal. Valentia Island is widely regarded as one of Ireland’s hidden gems – a place of rugged natural beauty and growing popularity. The island offers a rich variety of scenic coastal walks, a charming local beach, the nearby Geokaun Mountain with its breathtaking panoramic views, and the unique Valentia Island Tetrapod Trackway. The area also serves as a gateway to iconic destinations such as the Skellig Michael and the dramatic Kerry Cliffs. The region is experiencing notable growth, supported by increasing tourism and infrastructure improvements, including the development of a major cycling greenway through Kerry, which is set to further enhance accessibility and appeal. This is a rare chance to invest in a location that combines natural beauty, strong expected tourism demand, and long-term development potential.
