Former HSE property in Longford town to go up for auction this month


The Dublin Road property will go up for online auction with O’Donnellan & Joyce Auctioneers on Friday March 27
A former HSE property just outside Longford town is expected to attract significant interest from investors and developers when it goes up for auction later this month.
With a guide price of €190,000, Hillcrest House is set to go under the hammer on Friday March 27 through the Galway based O’Donnellan & Joyce Auctioneers.


Previously, Hillcrest House operated as a 24-hour, nurse-staffed, high-support rehabilitation and recovery community residence since September 2012.


According to a 2017 report, the residence had been newly renovated at the time, complete with new flooring, a new heating system, new improved insulation, a new kitchen and bathrooms, as well as new furnishings throughout.
Today however the property, while still structurally substantial, will require upgrading and modernisation to bring it up to standard.
The residence carries a BER rating of C3 and has a kitchen, two living rooms, two office rooms, two toilet facilities, and five bedrooms. It also has a basement level as well as a fire exit from the top bedroom.


The location of Hillcrest House however, makes this property listing particularly attractive to investors given that it’s located within just 500 metres of the N4 roundabout in Longford.
In addition to investors, the property is also expected to attract significant interest from bidders such as developers and those seeking an extensive renovation project.
