About Frank's Fryer, Main Street

Description

Step into a living piece of Lismore’s story with 'Frank’s Fryer' — a property where heritage and modern lifestyle meet in a truly distinctive way. Once known as Goulding’s Corner, or “Ua Guilidhe,” this 1847 historic building was the home of Seán Goulding, an Irish speaker, Fianna Fáil TD for Waterford (1927–1937), and later Chairman of the Irish Senate in 1943. The house carries echoes of a remarkable past — from visits by Éamon de Valera and Charles Stewart Parnell to its occupation during the War of Independence. Today, that legacy lives on, woven into the very fabric of the building. Operating as a Take-away / Restaurant since 2001, the property has evolved into a vibrant hub of refreshment and leisure, while still preserving its traditional charm. Original features remain proudly on display, including period detailing and the striking balcony window, where it is said de Valera and Parnell addressed supporters. Spread across three floors, the property offers exceptional flexibility. The residential section provides accommodation as a large family home and includes five bedrooms, an elegant sitting room with the original fireplace and features. The attic has been thoughtfully converted into a bright space with versatile use, complete with Velux windows framing captivating views towards Lismore Castle. A double-aspect, south-facing orientation fills the home with natural light throughout the day. The second-floor features a private outdoor space off the kitchen that overlooks Lismore Castle — a rare vantage point in this heritage town. With separate commercial and residential entrances, the ground floor hosts a fully operational retail space with rest rooms, kitchen, preparation room and freezer room thus offering excellent potential for continued use as a cafe, take away or alternative ventures. Located in the heart of Lismore which is less than an hour from the cities of Cork and Waterford, the property is surrounded by a rich community and lifestyle offering — from scenic walks along the River Blackwater to renowned local festivals such as the Opera Festival. With excellent schools, cafés, bars, and strong sporting traditions including GAA, camogie, tennis, and more, this is a place where culture and community thrive. Proudly presented by Brian Gleeson Property, Frank’s Fryer is more than just a property, it’s a rare opportunity to own a unique chapter of Lismore’s past and present.
