Plans in the pipeline for 204 new dwellings in Peyton Estate area
By Aideen O'Flaherty
PLANS for the development of 204 dwellings on an undeveloped portion of the Peyton Estate in Rathcoole have been lodged with An Bord Pleanála.
Romeville Developments, who lodged their current application this month, previously applied to South Dublin County Council for a 99-unit residential development at the same site, but they withdrew that application in April 2019.

The apartment units above the duplex comprising ten two-bed units and four three-bed units, while an additional 39 apartments, comprising ten one-bed units, 23 two-bed units and six three-bed units are to be contained in a single apartment block to the north-west.
