Carpet factory on 5.5acre site outside Bangor fetches £1.5m

Lisney has achieved £1.5 million for the former Northern Ireland Carpets factory, a 5.5-acre site on the Comber Road, outside Bangor, Co Down. The site is to be redeveloped and the 96,455 sq ft factory building to be refurbished. Mr Joe McGeehan of Lisney said the market for large-scale industrial units subject to restrictive ground leases is usually slow.
