Site at Boghall Road, Bray, Co. Wicklow

An attractive residential development opportunity extending to c. 1.66 acre / 0.67 ha off Boghall Road, Bray. The property comprises two existing dwellings, associated outbuildings and surrounding grounds within an established urban setting. The dwellings are known as Slievenamon (A98 Y2P2) and Rockview (A98 HE06). The site also contains sheds, outbuildings and a timber chalet. McAulay Rice Architects has prepared an initial site assessment and five conceptual development options. These explore houses, apartments and duplex accommodation, illustrating different approaches to residential infill on the site. The architect identifies the current low-density use as offering potential for residential infill development, subject to planning permission. The land is zoned RS – Residential “To provide for residential development and protect and improve residential amenity” under the current Bray Municipal District Local Area Plan (2018 – 2024). The Draft Bray Municipal District Local Area Plan 2025 is due to be adopted and it is anticipated that the zoning on the subject site will remain the same as the expired plan. The property is situated off Boghall Road within an established part of Bray. The immediate surroundings include Oldcourt Avenue housing estate, Boghall Shopping Centre, Lidl and Killarney Road Business Park, providing a mix of residential, retail and employment uses. Bray has excellent public transport links via the DART service, with a travel time of c. 40 mins, and frequent Dublin Bus routes to and from Dublin City Centre. Bray is also well served by the national road network, via the M11 and the M50. In addition to the excellent transportation links, this site is located close to the new park and ride facility just off the M11 at Fassaroe, which is due to open with frequent bus services to and from Dublin City Centre commencing later on in 2026 / 2027. In recent years, the popularity of Bray has resulted in exceptionally strong price growth for new developments in the area. Bray has always been a popular, family friendly destination with buyers due to the coastal location, the DART service and the proximity of centres of employment such as Cherrywood and Sandyford Industrial Estate, both of which are easily accessed via the M50.
