The views are stunning.

And if you’re in the market for a seaside home with a retail and rental opportunity built-in, 1-3 West Beach in Cobh has hit the market at €890,000.

The building occupies a high-profile position within the town centre, offering panoramic sea-front views and sits on a prominent corner site at the junction of Pearse Square and West Beach.

The three-storey plus dormer level corner building includes a traditional shop front façade fronting directly onto the public pavement of West Beach.

The ground floor is fitted out for retail use with ample storage rooms, a canteen, toilet facilities, cold rooms, and offices.

This unit has traded as a convenience outlet for many years and is well known locally. The owner of the business is now retiring, and so vacant possession is available.

Each of the upper floors accommodates two apartments including the attic level, which benefits from a mansard-style roof.

In total, there are presently six two-bedroom apartments with the potential for further development. The estimated market rent is an impressive €92,371 per annum.

“This is a prime town centre location adjacent to the Titanic centre and adjoining the local AIB Bank.” say the estate agents handling the sale, ERA Downey McCarthy.

“The John F. Kennedy Pier and Cobh Harbour are directly opposite, which provide the main disembarkation point for all international visitors from the many cruise liners that regularly visit Cork.”
