Developers and investors targeting the upper end of the owner-occupier and private rented sector (PRS) markets will be interested in the sale of a prime residential site at Foxrock in south Dublin.

Located at the junction of Kill Lane and the Bray Road (N11) and immediately across the road from the landmark Church of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour, the subject site extends to 0.358 acres (0.885 hectares) and comes for sale at a guide price of €4.5 million with full planning permission for the development of 45 apartments and 41 car parking spaces.

The site currently comprises two former residential properties (Clara House and Montrose) and, according to Gareth Noone of DNG’s advisory division, offers an “exceptional opportunity to develop a high-quality residential development in a highly accessible location”.

The approved scheme (planning references D19A/0006 and ABP PL06D.304979) allows for a total of 45 units comprising a mix of one-, two- and three-bed apartments and 41 car parking spaces.
