We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Superb elevated position on the Carrickmore Road Outstanding panoramic coastal views Uninterrupted outlook across the beach towards Ballycastle town Spectacular views towards Rathlin Island, Fair Head and the Scottish Coastline Generous site extending to approximately 2 acres Existing detached bungalow providing potential for a replacement dwelling, subject to approvals Set within the distinctive landscape of the Ballycastle Coalfields ASSI Exceptional opportunity to create a bespoke home designed to compliment its unique coast setting Occupying an impressive elevated position on the Carrickmore Road, this substantial site enjoys truly outstanding panoramic views across the beach towards Ballycastle town, with views to Rathlin Island, Fair Head and the Scottish Coastline.
Extending to approximately 2 acres, the property offers a rare opportunity to acquire a generously proportioned site in an exceptional coastal setting.
The site currently accommodates a detached bungalow, however the existing dwelling is unlikely to be viable for continued residential use and the property is therefore being marketed primarily as a potential replacement dwelling/building site, subject to the necessary statutory approvals.
Adding to the unique character and natural appeal of the setting, parts of the lands are located within Ballycastle Coalfields Area of Special Scientific Interest (ASSI).
The ASSI designation will be an important consideration in determining the most appropriate position and design of any proposed replacement dwelling, offering an opportunity for a thoughtfully designed home that responds sensitively to this exceptional landscape.
