Cre Umha Farrigal, Shore Road, Ballaugh

A rare opportunity to acquire a traditional stone former Methodist school set within a generous half acre woodland plot, protected by a Tree Preservation Order. The building, which was renamed in May 2022 with the intention of converting it into a residential dwelling, occupies a peaceful position close to Shore Road and Bollyn Road at The Cronk. Offering a floor area of 54 sq m, the property retains its original foundations, and extensive ground stabilisation works have already been carried out. The former asbestos fibre cement corrugated roof has been safely removed, providing a clean starting point for future redevelopment.Although the previous planning consent (PA 16/00778/B) has now lapsed, the Planning Department has indicated that a new application in line with the original approval is likely to be supported. Mains utilities are currently not connected but are available close to the site.The location is particularly appealing, with Shore Road leading directly to Ballaugh Beach, situated just 300 metres from the property. The surrounding area offers a blend of rural charm and convenient access to key destinations, including Jurby Industrial Estate and the Isle of Man Motorcycle Museum two miles to the north, Ballaugh village around two miles away, and Ramsey only seven miles away.
