Former John A Woods depot on the market for €950,000
A FORMER John A Wood depot in Carrigrohane suitable as a builder's compound, or for storage or parking, is on the market with a guide price of €950,000. The 2.26ha (5.58a) land parcel, east of Inchigaggin Lane, is being sold by a private vendor who bought the property from John A Wood many years ago. The site has been used from time to time by Cork City Fire Brigade for training purposes and most recently as a yard for storage purposes. Located in a 'landscape preservation zone' in the Cork City Development Plan 2022, there's a presumption against development. However selling agent Ed Hanafin of Cohalan Downing points out that, as per the development plan 'there may be scope for development to enable existing occupiers to adapt existing buildings to their evolving requirements, providing that the form or nature of development is compatible with the landscape character of the area. This might include a change of use or minor extensions'. Currently, there is is a small building of approximately 53.23 sq m (573 sq ft) on the site. The land, laid out with a roadway, hardstanding and grassed/overgrown areas is just beyond Victoria Cross and in a good location for travelling west. It's close to the city centre too (4km away) and has good access to the N40 South Ring Road and to Blarney. Once the proposed Northern Distributor Road is realised further down the line, it will link the Carrigrohane Road to Glanmire, opening up access to the city's northern suburbs and to the N20 Limerick Road. However while the preferred route has been chosen for the new road, it will be a number of years before the project is delivered. Mr Hanafin said current interest in the site is from parties with hardstanding/storage requirements. A number of sports' clubs have playing pitches in the area, but do not feature so far among those enquiring. The agent said the land "may have medium to long term development potential, subject to a change in zoning and planning permission'. The property is on the southern side of Carrigrohane Road, across from the end of the Lee Fields walkway. It's adjacent to Grassland Agro industrial fertliser plant, while the Kingsley Hotel, County Hall and the large Bottle Works purpose-built student accommodation development are just to the east.
