Cork housing: Plans for 500 Dunkettle homes approved despite local opposition

The approved scheme comprised 394 homes, a mix of two-, three-, and four-bedroom semi-detached and townhouse or terraced units, as well as 156 apartment and duplex units.

Plans for a large-scale residential development comprising 550 new homes on the outskirts of Cork City have been approved, subject to revised conditions, by An Coimisiún Pleanála.

O’Flynn Group got the green light from the city council in April for the first phase of a major new housing scheme on the site near the Dunkettle Interchange that it has owned since 2003.
