Bonne Bouche

This is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a landmark building in the heart of Arklow Town. Ideally located on the lower Main Street, this is a fine, double fronted building with side access and garage / storage to the rear. Currently vacant - its a blank canvas for any prospective buyer to make their own.

Bonne Bouche has previously been a thriving shop and family home with the residential part of the property to the side and rear of the retail unit. Well maintained throughout and laid out over three levels, the property boasts spacious bedrooms, reception rooms and large family kitchen to the rear. This lovely home provides all the space a family could hope for. The original shop is part of the property, yet separated in a way that allows for a distinction between the two.

To the rear, there is a private courtyard - a real sun trap, with access to a large garage allowing access to the adjacent lane. This could be perfect as a workshop, or further business premises.

This is a unique property appealing to many a discerning buyer. Offering the chance to live in the heart of town, with a 2 second commute to work and all the space you might wish for, Bonne Bouche is sure to be of interest.

Arklow's proximity to Dublin led to it becoming a thriving commuter town with a population of 13,009 at the 2011 census. Arklow is at the mouth of the River Avoca (formerly Avonmore). The town is divided by the river, which is crossed by the Nineteen Arches Bridge, a stone arch bridge linking the southern or main part of the town with the northern part, called Ferrybank. There are eight primary schools located around the town (including one Gaelscoil), and four secondary schools.

The N11/M11 from Dublin to Rosslare bypasses Arklow between junctions 20 and 21, becoming a motorway heading southbound from junction 20. This will connect the existing N11 Arklow Bypass with the existing N11 Rathnew/Ashford Bypass creating motorway from Dublin to Gorey. Rail connections are provided by Iarnród Éireann along the Dublin-Rosslare railway line, including commuter and intercity services in and out of the capital. There is also a train to Dundalk available daily. Bus Éireann provides several routes through Arklow. In addition, Wexford Bus operates several services day and night linking Arklow with Dublin Airport.
