Ground Floor
The current property comprises of two co-joining businesses on the ground floor, a currently trading hot food take-away business and the co-joining Café (the Café is not currently trading). Both businesses are at the front of the building facing towards Carnlough bay. The back area of the ground floor consists of a kitchen and preparation area, toilet facilities and storage area. Further back there is a further preparation area, which currently hosts industrial fridges/freezers.

Back Driveway/Garden Area - serving the property, giving access to the back of the Commercial Business and Residential Property
Both properties are served by a driveway with gate that leads to the back of the property with parking space provided. Further back from the driveway there is a good-sized garden.

First Floor Residential Living Area
The first floor is accessed via a front door at the back of the property. Upon walking into the property from the ground floor back door (served separately from the commercial business), there is a hallway leading to a doorway that leads upstairs. There is a utility room to the right of the residential property"s door access, this can serve the commercial business and/or the residential property. Moving up the stairs into the residential property, there are five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen/dining area and reception room (the reception room has excellent views over Carnlough bay). The property has a further converted loft room with further potential to be extended.

The Property"s Future Potential
This property has vast potential for redevelopment of the current commercial/residential status. The current two businesses could be adapted/enhanced to create two separate business entities or to further build on the current hot food takeaway/Café set up which is currently in place. There is much potential for a revamp of this property into a successful all year-round business (with an excellent reputation of over 40 years) , with a five-bedroom residential home attached. There is also the potential to adapt the residential area into short term holiday lettings, or long-term.

Investment and Redevelopment
This property has the potential for total redevelopment of the whole property, such as several flats or townhouses. The famous Antrim coast has seen a lot of investment in recent years. Carnlough itself is going through a lot of redevelopments with investment projects underway in a few locations.

Out House with Further Development Opportunities
There is the opportunity to buy a further outhouse building with this property. This outhouse can be used as a storage facility for the businesses. Alternatively, it could be redeveloped into a further property. Furthermore, there is potential to knock this building down to create more parking spaces between the garden area, the outhouse building and the commercial/residential building.

Energy Performance Certificate (EPCs)

Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) give information on how to make your home more energy efficient and reduce your energy costs. All homes bought, sold or rented require an EPC. EPCs carry ratings that compare the current energy efficiency and estimated costs of energy use with potential figures that your home 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 homes are measured using the same calculations, so you can compare the energy efficiency of different properties.
