5 Main Street Garrison, BT93 5ER

Fermanagh Lakeland Properties offer a unique and outstanding opportunity to the discerning purchaser to enjoy the experience of completing the refurbishment of the former village Post Office.

This admirable building served as the Post Office from 1902 until it's closure in 1970. It's referred to locally as George Blair's.

The property has been recognised for its architectural prowess and its listing status is B2.

Garrison itself is an attractive border settlement having an idyllic setting on the edge of Lough Melvin - a highly scenic Lough with excellent fishing. The Leitrim braes form a beautiful backdrop.

The village has a mix of commercial and residential life, with a substantial influx of visitors travelling to the area both as day trippers and as residents in the cottages, chalets and guesthouses.

The property itself adjoins the Riverside Bar & Restaurant and it's substantial in size, boasts a large courtyard and while the garage isn't part of the listed building it comes with the house and it status is rented with a sitting commercial tenant.

Full planning has been granted to undertake the refurbishment of this distinguished building. While substantial progress has been achieved the current owner wishes to hand over the baton to someone who is passionate in seeing the refurbishment to a high specification conclusion.

Historical Monuments and Buildings are closely associated with the overall scheme.

The current owner has painstakingly worked on the project with the motto: ' repair, do not replace '.
