Old house demolished and replaced with new 1.5-storey dwelling

New application filed, awaiting decision from Donegal County Council

Michael Laura McLaughlin wants to knock down a 1.5-storey house in Ballymacarthur, Greencastle and build a new one in its place. The existing building has defective concrete blockwork, so it's being replaced rather than repaired. The new house will be connected to existing services on the site.
