Plans have been submitted to Cork City Council for a large-scale residential development along Waterfall Road in Bishopstown, Cork.
Note: 3D Design Bureau is NOT an agent for the sale or letting of any properties within this development.
A planning application has been lodged to Dun-Laoghaire Rathdown County Council for a new residential development off Sandyford Road in Sandyford, Co. Dublin. The proposed scheme will feature 73 residential units, comprising a mix of houses and apartments.
3D Design Bureau delivered a range of planning solutions for this project, including 3D visuals and a detailed Daylight and Sunlight Assessment Report. The visuals, comprising verified view montages, aerial photomontages, and architectural CGIs, not only showcased the proposed design but also demonstrated how the scheme integrates with the surrounding environment.
The Daylight and Sunlight Assessment revealed that the development’s design carefully balances minimising its impact on neighbouring properties while maximising light for the new apartment units and communal areas. Interestingly, the assessment found that some neighbouring windows and gardens would actually benefit from improved sunlight due to the removal of large evergreen trees on the site.
The project involves the demolition of two existing buildings, ‘Glenina’ and ‘Karuna,’ currently used as emergency accommodation, along with the removal of a boundary wall along Sandyford Road. In their place, 13 two-and-a-half-storey houses offering 3- to 5-bedroom options will be constructed.
Additionally, the development will feature two apartment blocks ranging from 5 to 6 storeys, providing 60 apartments. The apartments will include a mix of 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom units, each with its own balcony or terrace.
The development also includes essential infrastructure such as car parking (including accessible spaces), motorcycle and bicycle parking, and extensive landscaping. Communal open spaces will be provided for residents, contributing to the overall design and usability of the area.
The site, bordered by the Coolkill, ‘The Pastures,’ and ‘Cul Cuille’ developments, will benefit from improvements to Sandyford Road. These include a new pedestrian connection, a multi-modal access point, and additional landscaping. Planned upgrades to the road network, to be undertaken by Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council, are also part of the proposal.
