- This site lies within the sought-after Tides development in the heart of Portavogie. Formerly associated with Nos. 51 and 53 Main Road, the site benefits from a level layout and existing vehicular access, offering excellent development potential. Currently featuring a number of sheds historically used for building material storage, the site is partially enclosed with a combination of low walls and timber fencing, ensuring a degree of privacy and security. The rear boundary remains open, offering flexibility for future planning or landscaping. A Northern Ireland Electricity (NIE) unit is located immediately to the north, discreetly enclosed on three sides by boundary walls and open only to the adjacent road. This practical and well-situated plot represents a rare opportunity to secure a versatile site in a well-regarded coastal development.
