About Headford Balrickard
Description
Pat Burke Property are delighted to present an excellent development opportunity in the heart of Headford town. Set on approximately 6 acres of green field land, this prime site offers superb potential and benefits from its Town Centre zoning, with designation for Residential, Business and Enterprise use under the Galway County Development Plan 2022–2028. The location is hard to beat. Positioned just off the N84 Headford to Galway Road, adjoining the Meadow Hill housing estate on the Galway side of Headford, the site is ideally placed for commuters, with Galway city only around 25 minutes away by car and a frequent bus route nearby. It also enjoys the added benefit of access from the town square, making shops, schools, cafés, restaurants, pubs, pharmacies, medical services, sporting facilities and the Anglers Rest Hotel all easily reachable from the doorstep. Headford continues to grow in popularity, offering the appeal of a well-serviced rural town while remaining within easy reach of Galway city. It is also recognised in the National Planning Framework as a growing town, with ongoing demand for housing, services and commercial amenities as the local population expands. As one of the last remaining green field sites of this scale in Headford, this is a rare chance for developers or investors to secure a highly accessible town centre holding with strong future potential. Opportunities like this do not come along often, so early enquiry is highly recommended. For further information, please contact Pat on 087 8137150.
