One of the largest developers in Ireland has sought permission to build 1,000 new homes before the end of 2020 in Dublin.
The hopeful Quintain development is set for Cherrywood Village in the Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown area of the capital.
Once complete, the Village will be filled with over 1,300 homes, two public parks along with primary and secondary schools and cycling and walking tracks making it ideal for first-time buyers looking for a long-term home.
The first planning application for the new location was submitted earlier this month for a total of 134 three and four bed houses and duplexes, which Quintain hope will be available for sale in early 2021.
Four further applications for over 800 additional homes are planned before the end of the year, with these applications likely to be a mix of houses, apartments and duplexes and will include the village centre.
A full masterplan for Cherrywood Village is due to be published in September including an extensive in-place infrastructure showcasing a road network, the Green Luas line, and public parks.
Eddie Byrne, Joint Managing Partner of Quintain said: “We are delighted to be making progress on plans for the near-term delivery of 1,000 new homes at Cherrywood Village.
"A full masterplan for this area will be published before the end of September and outline our ambitious vision to deliver a new place to live in South Dublin, that is well-connected to existing infrastructure and amenities.
"Cycleways and pedestrian routes will link to the LUAS and Dublin Bus stops, and a vibrant village centre will provide shops, restaurants and cafés, and crèche facilities."
