A landmark Belfast city centre property, located in a prime retail and leisure area, has been brought to market. Property agency CBRE NI are seeking offers in excess of £7 million, excluding VAT, for Ross’s Court.
Located on William Street South, with additional access via Arthur Place and Montgomery Street, the property is described as offering investors an opportunity to acquire a high-profile site in the city centre, providing both secure income and significant redevelopment potential.
The site comprises a ground floor retail investment, as well as vacant space on the upper floors, which are available to be purchased separately. According to CBRE, the upper floors are suited to a range of alternative uses, including residential, office, flexible services office, hotel, hostel or aparthotel, subject to planning.
CBRE NI Senior Director Andrew Coggins said that the sale offered “a rare prospect to acquire a substantial income-generating asset in the heart of Belfast.” The property currently generates gross annual income of £304,800, with the ground floor units occupied by prominent retailers Mango and Russell & Bromley.
Andrew Coggins continued: "The most recent quarterly report produced by CBRE NI revealed that retail assets were the standout performer in the Northern Ireland market, accounting for 78 per cent of all investment spend. Against this backdrop, Ross’s Court comes to the market at an excellent time.”
"With established covenants in place and clear redevelopment potential, this property is well positioned to appeal to investors seeking long-term value in a strengthening city centre market."
Shaun Collins, Investment Director at Martin Property Group, described Ross’s Court as “a unique building with historic character and exceptional potential”, adding that they “anticipate strong interest from local and international investors hoping to capitalise on Belfast’s strong city centre retail environment."
