New Portrush homes to be ready ahead of The Open

- BY MARGARET CANNING

Hagan Homes has said it is on track to complete a major £3.25m refurbishm­ent of 24 homes aimed at holidaymak­ers on the north coast.

Hagan Homes bought the former student houses in Dhu Varren Park in Portrush last October and has been refurbishi­ng them since.

The first six will be finished by September this year and the overall developmen­t of four and five-bed homes is to be completed by December — in time for major golf tournament The Open championsh­ip at Royal Portrush next year.

The houses will go on sale in June, with prices starting at £164,950.

Hagan Homes founder and chairman James Hagan said: “The Rocks, Portrush offers not

only the perfect ‘home away from home’, but also a remarkably tranquil setting and beautiful scenery to be enjoyed year after year, come rain or shine.

“Lying at the doorstep of one of the top-rated Blue Flag beaches in the UK and a wealth of unspoilt scenery and natural beauty, The Rocks boasts an endless variety of activities for the family to enjoy throughout the year.”

Three fully furnished show homes will open for visits this Sunday. The houses are on sale through estate agents Armstrong Gordon.

The developmen­t is part of many projects taking place in the town to get it ready for the hundreds of thousands of people who will attend next year’s Open.

Last month, funder Assetz Capital announced it was backing the constructi­on of 20 apartments by MAM Group in Main Street.

And hotel group Andras House has launched revised plans for its revamp of the derelict Londonderr­y Hotel in the town centre. Other work includes a new public realm scheme and regenerati­on of Portrush Railway Station.
