Dunboyne residential opportunity guiding at €6.75m

Developers seeking residential opportunities in Dublin’s commuter belt may be interested in a site which has come to the market at a guide price of €6.75 million in Co Meath.

Situated on the Navan Road in Dunboyne town, the lands extend to a total of 11.05 hectares (27.3 acres), and are zoned under the Meath County Development Plan 2013-2019 as follows: A2 Residential – 5.40 hectares (13.34 acres); F1 Open Space – 2.12 hectares (5.24 acres); and Un-zoned – 3.53 hectares (8.72 acres).

The draft Meath County Development Plan 2021-2027 was published on December 18th, 2019 for public consultation (until March 6th, 2020). The plan is due to come into effect in May 2021. Under this, the residential and open space zoning of the subject site is to be increased to 6.13 hectares (15.14 acres) and 4.92 hectares (12.16 acres) respectively.

While there is a road proposal through the lands, advice received from IMG Planning indicates that it is not foreseen that development of the subject site would be contingent on the road being provided along its entire length.
