Description
Theo Florent & Gerry King (MIPAV) Sales Agent on Behalf of Prestige Property are proud to bring to the market A Prime Redevelopment Opportunity on an 8-Acre Elevated Site in the heart of Avoca, Co. Wicklow Sold in One Lot Comprising * The Vale View Hotel * 80sqm 3 Bed Bungalow * 100sqm 2 Bed Bungalow Nestled in the heart of County Wicklow, the site & grounds of the former two storey Vale View Hotel offers sweeping views over rolling hills and river valleys. Just minutes from Avoca village—with its rich mining history, artisan shops, and the famous "Meeting of the Waters"—this tranquil location combines rural charm with excellent local access and strong potential for redevelopment or investment. Set on a scenic elevated plot between Avoca and Woodenbridge, this approx. 8-acre site includes the derelict remains of the former two-storey Vale View Hotel, a separate annex (formerly staff quarters), and two detached bungalows set on their own elevated sites overlooking the valley. The site has the potential for re-instatement as a boutique hotel or as a guest-house complex both of which incorporating a spa/restaurant amenity, to capitalise on its elevated scenery and tourism potential. Alternatively the site could be repurposed to build an extensive & beautifully designed private family residence in a truly unique setting. Description Bungalow 1 Closest to the main road, measures approximately 80 sqm & comprises 3 bedrooms, living room, kitchen and master bathroom - oil fired central heating. Bungalow 2 Overlooking the hotel site, measures approximately 100sqm & comprises 2 large bedrooms, living room, kitchen and master bathroom - oil fired central heating. The Vale View Hotel Comprises original hotel ruins, annex building previously used for staff housing. Historically, the Vale View Hotel held a valued place in the local community, offering a peaceful country escape drawing guests with its elevated position and expansive views. The surrounding area is steeped in cultural heritage, with Avoca known not only for its mining roots but also for its connections to Ireland's literary and musical traditions. Today, this part of Wicklow continues to attract visitors for its natural beauty, outdoor pursuits, and slower pace of life, making it an increasingly desirable location for boutique accommodation or luxury private living. For discerning buyers or investors, the site offers both a rare scale and a strong emotional resonance, whether to sensitively restore a piece of local history, or to design a bespoke home that embraces the landscape and character of the region. Its size, setting, and heritage combine to offer exceptional long-term potential in a location that feels both secluded and connected.
