Prime Residential Development Opportunity — Dromod, Co. Leitrim Outline Planning Permission for 17 New Homes | Approximately 0.692 Hectares / 1.71 Acres Leitrim County Council Planning Reference: 26/60014 Cox & Walsh Estate Agents present a superb opportunity to acquire a prime residential development site in the attractive Shannonside village of Dromod, Co Leitrim. Extending to approximately 0.692 hectares / 1.71 acres overall, the property combines an established village setting with outline planning permission for 17 new homes, proposed connections to public services and the retention of an existing dwelling within the site. For a purchaser seeking a development of manageable scale in a desirable residential location, this is an opportunity with considerable potential. Dromod offers an appealing combination of waterside living, village character and connectivity. Its picturesque harbour, local restaurants and amenities, together with a railway station on the Dublin–Sligo line, provide an attractive setting for future homeowners. In recent months, homes in Dromod have achieved prices in the region of €350,000–€400,000, depending on the property. These results provide useful context for the opportunity, although they are not a valuation or forecast of the homes that may ultimately be delivered on this site. A considered residential scheme Leitrim County Council granted outline planning permission on 4 August 2026, under planning reference 26/60014, for 17 new two-storey homes comprising: 10 semi-detached houses: six three-bedroom and four four-bedroom homes. Seven terraced houses: four three-bedroom and three two-bedroom homes, arranged in two terraces. The proposal includes a new entrance from the public road, revised access to the existing dwelling, connections to services and associated site-development works. The existing dwelling is retained separately from the 17 proposed new homes. The accompanying layout provides for an internal residential street, parking, private gardens and landscaped open space. The lands are identified in the planning decision as zoned “Existing Residential” within the Dromod Settlement Plan. A clear basis for the next stage The outline permission establishes the principle of 17 new dwellings and the overall site layout. A purchaser will need to obtain permission consequent on the outline permission before development can begin, with the detailed house designs, servicing, access, boundary treatments and landscaping addressed at that stage. The grant requires that application to be made within three years of 4 August 2026. Public drainage infrastructure, including a sewer running through part of the site, is identified in the supporting documentation. Proposed water and wastewater connections remain subject to an Uisce Éireann connection agreement and the relevant technical requirements. Supporting investigations have already been undertaken. The archaeological testing report records no archaeological finds or features and concludes that no further archaeological input is required. The submitted Appropriate Assessment screening report concludes that a Stage 2 Natura Impact Statement is not required for the proposal assessed. These reports are available for purchasers and their advisers to review alongside the planning documents. An attractive village location, an established residential planning principle and the opportunity to shape the detailed scheme: a compelling prospect for a purchaser seeking to deliver new homes in Dromod.
