Planning approval for 37 new Mayo homes

A 37-unit housing development in Crossmolina has been approved planning by Mayo County Council.

The development site is at Mullenmore North and Knockalegan, Crossmolina, and the developers are John and Carina Craven.

The project involves the construction of 10 two-bed semi-detached bungalows, nine three-bed detached bungalows, eight four-bed detached two-storey dwellings and 10 four-bed semi-detached two-storey homes.

A design statement submitted to the council sets out how the project is designed to provide a range of house options, close to Crossmolina town, on what is currently a green field site.

The report states that it is a prime location for homes.

The site is within walking distance of all amenities and has pedestrian access to the town centre.
