Land Development Agency To Deliver Over 300 Homes In Shankill

The Land Development Agency (LDA) has today announced the acquisition of over 328 new homes in Shankill on the Wicklow/Dublin border.

The new A-rated apartments are being delivered in Woodbrook and include 102 one-bed and 226 two-bed homes.

The homes are being delivered in partnership with Castlethorn, through the LDA’s Project Tosaigh initiative. 

The completed homes are then owned by the LDA and made available as cost rental or sold by the LDA in partnership with local authorities through affordable purchase schemes.

In this case, all of the 328 Woodbrook apartments will be made available as cost rental.

Cost rental is designed to assist those who do not quality for social housing or other state housing supports, but who are struggling to afford to rent in the private market.

The apartments are part of Castlethorn’s Woodbrook development, which includes 685 homes and has the potential to deliver an additional 500 homes.
