Retail development opportunity goes on sale for £1.75m

A west Belfast site with planning permission granted for a filling station with forecourt and retail unit, has gone on sale for £1.75 million.

Situated on McKinstry/Creightons Road in Derriaghy, the site is adjacent to the recently opened McDonalds drive-thru, which is attracting considerable footfall.

The prominent site is adjacent to a major arterial road, easily accessible to the M1 and M2, and also lies adjacent to the established commercial area at The Cutts.

The commercial development opportunity is a level cleared site, with planning permission granted for a petrol filling station comprising a retail unit, canopy, totem sign, forecourt, parking and associated site works.

CBRE, which is handling the sale, said the remainder of the site is suitable for drive-thru restaurants, retail or leisure uses, subject to planning approval.

They added that preliminary architectural exercises have revealed that in addition to the ‘approved’ PFS, there is scope to create drive-thru/retail units in a number of configurations at the site, all subject to planning approval.

Situated just three miles north of Lisburn city centre, the site is within easy reach of Derriaghy, Lambeg, Lisburn, Lagmore, Poleglass and Twinbrook.
