Development Land:Strong interest is expected in a large development site in Ennis, Co Clare. The 3.24 hectares (eight acres) site is expected to achieve over €15 million when sold by tender through agent NAI Mason Owen & Lyons.

The site includes the One Mile Inn and accompanying vacant lands behind it. The site occupies a high profile location fronting a major new traffic roundabout on the western relief route beside the N85 Ennis/Lahinch road and is only 1.6kms from Ennis town centre.

Large scale housing is expected for the site, subject to planning, given the lands are zoned "local town centre" under the Ennis Town & Environs Development Plan 2003 "to sustain and strengthen the area as a centre of commercial, retail, cultural and community life".

There are lands in the immediate area which have already been zoned residential and plenty of housing.

The site, subject to planning, offers an opportunity to develop a local town centre/neighbour-hood centre and residential development.
