Permission for a Large-Scale Residential Development at a site measuring c. 3.27 Ha in the townland of Glenamuck North in Kilternan, Dublin 18. The site is generally bounded by: the recently constructed Glenamuck District Distributor Road to the north (to be known as the Kilternan Road); the under construction Glenamuck Link Distributor Road to the east (to be known as the Kilternan–Glenamuck Link Road); Glenamuck Manor and a residential dwelling (known as ‘Westgate’), its associated outbuildings and wider land holding to the south; and a residential dwelling (known as ‘Shaldon Grange’) and its wider landholding located to the west. Road works are proposed to the approved Glenamuck District Roads Scheme (ABP Ref. HA06D.303945) to provide access to the development from the Kilternan Road. The Kilternan Road access point will include works, inclusive of any necessary tie-ins, to the footpath and cycle track to create a side road access junction incorporating the provision of uncontrolled pedestrian and cyclist crossing across the side road junction. A surface water outfall pipe (225 mm) is also proposed to pass through land to the north of the site, including the future Kilternan Road. The total site area including the development site, road works and infrastructure works measures c. 3.32 Ha. The development will principally consist of the construction of 135 No. residential units, comprising 65 No. houses (9 No. 2-bed units, 46 No. 3-bed units and 10 No. 4-bed units) and 70 No. duplex units (21 No. 1-bed units, 22 No. 2-bed units and 27 No. 3-bed units). The proposed development will principally range in height from 2 No. to 4 No. storeys. The development also provides: car, bicycle and motorcycle parking spaces; bin storage; ancillary storage; private balconies, terraces and gardens; hard and soft landscaping; boundary treatments; lighting; substations; and all other associated site works above and below ground.
