Nestled in the scenic countryside, yet within a short drive of all the shopping, educational, and recreational facilities of Wexford Town, it is a location that continues to attract strong interest from families, retirees, and commuters alike. The site benefits from an enviable position within the village itself, adjacent to all main amenities. Murrintown is well-served by a local shop, pub, primary school, childcare facilities, church, and credit union. The village is also a gateway to several scenic walking routes and is only a short distance from Johnstown Castle & Gardens, one of Wexford’s premier heritage attractions.

The combination of convenience, community, and countryside makes Murrintown one of the most attractive residential locations in County Wexford. General Description The property comprises a 3.51 acres (1.42 hectares) site set out in a single, well-shaped field with excellent road frontage. The land is level, making it ideal for development, and its central position in the village places it within easy walking distance of all essential amenities. A feasibility study by Irish Water has confirmed initial capacity for 20 residential units on a portion of the site, subject to planning permission. This provides a strong starting point for a phased or full development approach, with potential to increase density in line with infrastructure upgrades. The site’s size, configuration, and accessibility make it particularly suited for a quality residential scheme designed to meet the growing housing demand in the area. The combination of generous site proportions, ease of access, and a strong local market underpins its development potential. Opportunities to secure such a well-located and easily developed parcel of land in the heart of a thriving village are rare. This property offers a prime chance for developers, builders, or long-term investors to create a landmark residential scheme in one of County Wexford’s most desirable locations.
