A local developer has applied to Laois County Council for planning permission to begin a new residential development in one of the county’s biggest towns.
The application came from Garryduff Properties Limited, who have proposed a 40-unit hosing project in Cooltaderry, Portarlington.
The site in question is 1.128 hectares.
The proposed development, if approved, would compromise of the following:
- Six single-storey, semi-detached houses;
- Ten two-storey, semi-detached houses;
- 12 two-storey, terraced houses;
- Two duplex and apartment buildings.
Both duplex and apartment buildings will consist of four two-storey duplex units and two two-bed apartments above.
The proposed development would be accessed from the existing Lansdowne/Castlelea Estate.
The project is to also include estate roads, footpaths, public open space, foul and surf water drainage, landscaping and all associated infrastructure works and services.
