Description

This is a stunning and tranquil 0.51 Ha site on the River Nore, 5 miles from the beautiful village of Inistioge, County Kilkenny. Rosslare harbour is about a one hour drive to the site. The site is surrounded by mostly forestry and is in National Heritage area. It has full Commercial Planning for a fishing lodge (Holiday Home) of 2.5 stories. The planning lapses in January of 2011. It is virtually impossible to get planning on the river any more. The site excavation that took eight days of heavy machine work has already been done. The site is ready for immediate construction.
The seller has a well priced and reliable builder with home bond insurance that can undertake the build. The site is being sold because of relocation to South Africa.
This is an great opportunity for someone going on retirement who wants to build up a steady and pleasant business in tourism, or someone that are looking for a lifestyle change.
There is a ancient spring on the site that will provide bottled quality water to the household.
The salmon fishing nets were bought up in 2006 and there has been a noticeable improvement in the amount of fish in the river. This is an untapped industry in Ireland who has potentially the best fishing rivers in Europe. There is a waterfall within 10 minutes walk from the residence. The walk is through the adjacent forest.
The lodge has the alternative potential as a family holiday destination, Artist retreat, etc

The site is priced to sell and the asking price for a site like this in the peak of the market in 2007 would have been in the region of ?300 000.
