24 The Square, Portaferry – End-Terrace Townhouse with Commercial Element

Occupying a prominent position on The Square in the very heart of Portaferry, this substantial end-terrace historic townhouse presents a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a landmark property within one of the town’s most recognisable locations.

The property is in need of full modernisation, offering a blank canvas for those seeking to restore, reimagine or repurpose a character building with considerable potential. The accommodation is arranged over three generous floors, providing flexibility to suit a range of uses, subject to the appropriate consents.

A particularly notable feature is the inclusion of the locally renowned Rock Bakery on the ground floor which was once a long serving feature of The Square in Portaferry, adding a unique commercial aspect to the property. In addition to the bakery premises, the ground floor also incorporates a lounge and kitchen area, offering further adaptability depending on future requirements.

The upper floors are dedicated to residential accommodation. The first floor comprises two well-proportioned bedrooms, one of which benefits from a dressing room, along with a shower room. The second floor offers a further three bedrooms and a family bathroom, creating ample space for larger households, guest accommodation or alternative configurations.

Thanks to its elevated position, the property enjoys choice views across Strangford Lough, a highly sought-after feature that enhances its appeal and potential. Its central location ensures all local amenities are within easy walking distance, including shops, cafés, schools, the harbour and the Portaferry–Strangford ferry crossing.

This end-terrace property will appeal to buyers seeking a substantial renovation project, a mixed residential and commercial investment, or a characterful town centre building with scope to create something truly special in one of the Ards Peninsula’s most scenic coastal towns.
