INTRODUCTION
Best Property Services are delighted to offer to the open market two excellent building sites located on the highly regarded Forkhill Road, Meigh — an area well known for its scenic countryside setting while remaining conveniently positioned close to Newry City and key commuter routes.
These sites benefit from a strong planning history and present a rare opportunity to acquire serviced plots in a sought-after residential location, ideal for those wishing to build a substantial family home.
The approved house type is for an impressive two-storey detached residence with garage, similar in style and scale to the property illustrated, featuring a traditional yet elegant design that sits comfortably within its rural surroundings.
The proposed layout allows for:
•Spacious and well-balanced accommodation
•A substantial family home with flexible living space
•Attractive frontage with landscaped grounds
•Detached garage and generous private parking

LOCATION
From Meigh head North-east on the Forkhill Road for approximately 0.9 miles and the lands in sale are located on your right-hand side.

PLANNING
Full planning consent was granted 52m North of No.88 Forkhill Road, Newry in November 2021 (Planning Ref LA07/2023/2791/F) with a five year expiry for the proposed erection of a two storey dwelling and detached garage extending to approximately 5000sqft.
Intending purchasers are advised to have their own architect provide independent planning advice.

AREA, ADDITIONAL LANDS & ACCESS
Site 1 area extends to approximately 1.2 Acres as shown in red on the map above.
The vendor has an additional 1.3 acres shown in blue on the map above, (Site 2). These lands have a planning approval for a dwelling and garage, approved in March 2008. The foundations have been excavated to ensure the continuity and validity of the extant planning permission, demonstrating the lawful commencement of the approved development.
If the sites are sold separately, Site 2 to the rear can be provided access via site 1 through a formal shared access arrangement, subject to the necessary legal agreements and approvals. Should the purchaser of site 1 require sole ownership with no third-party rights of access, site 2 would secure the necessary planning permission for an alternative access arrangement directly from Low Road.
Intending purchasers are requested to stipulate their preference.
Further drawings and elevations for site 2 are available upon request.

OFFERS
Whilst the agents invite offers from interested parties for this property initially on a private basis, we reserve the right on behalf of the Vendors to conclude the bidding (if necessary) by holding a meeting of all bidders on a specified date and time in our office.
In the event that a meeting is to be arranged, only those parties with a valid offer on the property can be assured of being notified of the specific time and date.
