Planning application received: the construction of a residential housing estate. The development will consist of the construction of a 55-unit resident

Tipperary County Council received a planning application on 3 June 2026 from Gort Na Manach Abbey Farm for a new residential estate at Cahir Road, Inishlounaght T/D, Clonmel. The proposal would see the construction of a 55‑unit development comprising ten two‑storey semi‑detached four‑bedroom houses, thirty‑two two‑storey semi‑detached three‑bedroom houses, one single‑storey detached two‑bedroom house and additional town‑style units. Two two‑storey terraced blocks would contain eight mid‑terrace two‑bedroom townhouses and eight end‑of‑terrace three‑bedroom townhouses, while a separate two‑storey maisonette block would provide four two‑bedroom apartments.

The application also includes works to connect the site to existing infrastructure such as foul sewers, water mains and other utilities permitted under planning references 05‑43, 07‑107, 05550043, 07550107, 17601211 and 19600097. Site level adjustments, boundary treatments, open spaces, landscaping and all associated development works are also proposed.

A decision on the application is expected by 28 July 2026, although no decision code has yet been issued. The proposal follows a broader trend of housing growth in North Tipperary, with recent media coverage noting plans for 56 new homes in the area.
