Clarendon Street Church & adjoining 17 Queen Street, Derry~Londonderry, BT48 7ET

Substantial City Centre property, income producing

A rare opportunity to acquire a historically significant, part income-producing property in the heart of the City’s Conservation
Area. This impressive classical-style church, constructed in c.1837 to the designs of County Surveyor Stewart Gordon, occupies a commanding position at the junction of Clarendon Street and Queen Street, Derry/Londonderry.

Built primarily in Barony Glen Sandstone with detailed Giffnock Sandstone accents, the church’s striking exterior remains beautifully preserved. Architectural highlights include an imposing portico and grand entrance steps framed by over-scaled fluted and scrolled balustrades—elements that lend a powerful sense of grandeur and presence.

Internally, the building has retained much of its original layout and fine detailing, following a sympathetic interior remodelling in 1863. The overall structure makes a notable contribution to the historic fabric of the area, not only through its architecture but also its pivotal role in the early Victorian expansion beyond the City Walls.

Situated set back from the terraces of Queen Street, the church offers both privacy and prominence, making it suitable for a variety of future uses (subject to planning), while its part income-producing element enhances its investment appeal.

This is a truly distinctive offering—where heritage, architecture, and potential meet

Brief:

This substantial building encompasses a grade B+ listed former Church laid out over two floors, ground and first and 17 Queen Street which is a stand alone building occupied at present by Derry Well Woman. DWW also part occupy the ground floor of the Church leaving the first floor available for immediate occupation.
The first floor of the Church building comprises of a open plan landing/reception area, large board room and directors office as well as bathroom and kitchen facilities.
The Church building could easily be sub divided to offer two premises with their own dedicated access which maybe be advantageous to investors or organizations needing sub division. 

17 Queen Street is occupied by Derry Well Woman and fulfils their organisational office needs with the benefit of the adjoining meeting space in the main church hall.
