Summary

In a High Court application, property developer Greg Kavanagh seeks orders to prevent the sale of Wynnstay House, a derelict Dublin property valued at over €2m. Kavanagh, director of Greg Kavanagh Dev Co Ltd, claims an agreement from a settlement of a prior dispute entitles his company to purchase the house from its registered owner, Ballycrag Developments Limited, which is in receivership, and from Ms Anne O'Neill, who holds a charge. He alleges the agreement to buy is being reneged on and that the property has been listed for €2.25m. Kavanagh argues that a €200,000 deposit was paid in March, with a further €1.8m due within eight months, but disputes claims that the payment was late or that he was evading obligations. The court granted permission to serve notice of the injunction application and will consider the matter at a next‑week sitting.
