Planning application in Cork for 550 homes near Dunkettle

The scheme includes 394 homes in a mix of two, three and four-bed semi-detached and townhouse or terraced units and 156 apartment and duplex units.

A planning application has been lodged for 550 homes on the eastern outskirts of Cork city — the first phase of plans for a major 1,000-home residential scheme on the site.

Developer Michael O’Flynn’s O’Flynn Group has lodged the application for a vast site it owns at Dunkettle, south-east of Glanmire under the large-scale residential development (LRD) process.
