New 3-bedroom house with waste water treatment system refused

Cavan County Council has rejected a planning application submitted by Ciaran Dunne and Sinead Cosgrove for a new single‑storey, three‑bedroom house at Ryefield in Virginia, Co Cavan. The proposal also included a waste‑water treatment system and a new entrance from a private lane. The council’s decision, announced in its latest planning meeting, means the couple will not be able to proceed with the construction of the house as outlined. The application had been lodged with the council’s planning department, and the refusal was issued after a review of the proposal against local planning policies. No further details were provided in the council’s statement regarding the specific reasons for the refusal. The decision is part of the council’s ongoing work to manage development within the county and to ensure that new projects meet environmental and infrastructure standards. The owners had hoped to build the house on the site in Virginia, but the council’s refusal will require them to reconsider their plans or seek a different site.
