The subject lands are approx. 1.4 km from Ballybofey’s Town Centre and gently sloping away from the County Roadway in a primarily rectangular shaped site.
Ballybofey and Stranorlar situated key as the gateway to the northern part of the county has undoubtedly become known as a bustling hub overseeing vast development as of late. The close proximity to the North of Ireland and abundance of Northern Irish consumers receiving speculative exchange rates would attribute to this.

The very significant McElhinney’s Department Store in Ballybofey, together with the various essential amenities provided by both Stranorlar and Ballybofey to include commercial banks, hotels (Kee’s, Villa Rose and Jackson’s), hardware, licensed and restaurant establishments, national, primary and secondary schools, churches etc, cater very well for the local community and it’s large hinterland. In terms of residential developments, the town has witnessed considerable expansion in the last 10 to 15 years. Furthermore the recent completion of the new ‘Navenny Place” development of luxury apartments will add a vibrant touch to the twin towns.
The county headquarters and football pitch of the GAA Phairc Sean MacCumhail, together with the home grounds of Finn Harps Football Club are very significant facilities located in the area drawing large crowds.

Building Energy Ratings (BERs) give information on how to make your property more energy efficient and reduce your energy costs. All properties bought, sold or rented require an BER. BERs carry ratings that compare the current energy efficiency and estimated costs of energy use with potential figures that your property could achieve. Potential figures are calculated by estimating what the energy efficiency and energy costs could be if energy saving measures were put in place. The rating measures the energy efficiency of your home using a grade from ‘A’ to ‘G’. An ‘A’ rating is the most efficient, while ‘G’ is the least efficient. The average efficiency grade to date is ‘D’. All properties are measured using the same calculations, so you can compare the energy efficiency of different properties.
