Zoning & Development Potential The property is situated in an area zoned “Existing Residential/ Mixed Residential” in the Cork County Council Development Plan 2022-2028. Based on the Sustainable Residential Neighbourhood guidelines the density range for sites such as the subject property range from 15 to 25 units per acre. Taking this into consideration and the location of the site we would expect planning permission to be granted for a scheme of between 60 to 70 houses. In the Cork County Development Plan, The Cork County Council sets out a target growth of 30% in the population of Carrigaline by 2028 and this level of population growth will give rise to in the region of 1,800 housing units. It is intended to upgrade the N28 road from Cork City to Ringaskiddy to a motorway. Planning permission has been granted for the M28 and it is hoped that construction will start in 2024 with completion in 2027. The relocation of the Port of Cork to Ringaskiddy, along with the approval of the M28 road network, positively positions these lands for strategic development.
