Major new housing development being launched in Roscommon
The New Abbey View development set to launch in Roscommon Town has 19 A-rated homes.
A significant new housing development comprising 19 A-rated homes will be launched in Roscommon Town today, Saturday, October 3rd, offering an. opportunity for buyers seeking modern, energy-efficient homes in one of the town's most sought-after locations.
Sherry Fitzgerald P. Burke will officially launch the new Abbey View development on from 12 noon to 4 p.m. today, Saturday with strong early interest already being reported ahead of the opening.
Located in the heart of Roscommon Town, directly opposite the Abbey Hotel and within walking distance of supermarkets, shops, the train station, schools, restaurants and local amenities, Abbey View is expected to appeal to a wide range of buyers.
One of Abbey View's biggest attractions is its central location. The residential development will place homeowners within easy walking distance of everything Roscommon has to offer.
Auctioneer P. Burke believes the development's location is one of its strongest selling points, noting residents will be able to access many daily necessities without relying heavily on a car.
"The development is not on the outskirts of Roscommon Town but in the town itself," he said. "It's in an excellent location and you don't really need the car. Everything is within walking distance.” Mr Burke believes that proximity to Roscommon Railway Station is also expected to appeal to modern hybrid workers who divide their time between home and Dublin.
He described the development as "ideally suited" to those balancing home and office-based work.
"The train station is right beside Abbey View. People can hop on the train and go to Dublin if they're based there for a couple of days and work from home the rest of the week," he said.
He also believes the town’s newest residential development will bring more people into Roscommon Town - not just those who will live in Abbey View - and that can only be of benefit to the town and the local economy.
Mr Burke explains that the Abbey View development has been thoughtfully designed, combining contemporary style, comfort and practicality in a beautifully planned setting.
The development comprises a mix of two, three and four-bedroom bungalows, semi-detached and terraced homes.
The auctioneer believes that this diversity of housing is another strength of this new development.
" With a choice of layouts and house types, the development offers something to suit a variety of lifestyles," he said. "They're attractive to different types of people, whether that's somebody looking to downsize, a growing family, a first-time buyer or someone moving into town from the countryside."
All homes at Abbey View carry an A-rating and feature modern energy-efficient specifications, including air-to-water heating systems.
According to Mr Burke, buyers are increasingly seeking energy-efficient homes. Buyers can expect lower running costs, improved comfort levels and homes designed to meet modern environmental standards.
"They're all A-rated houses and they're ready to walk into," he said.
Each property comes with a contemporary fitted kitchen complete with elegant quartz worktops, beautifully tiled bathrooms, expansive full-height windows that maximise natural light and generous utility space designed for practical everyday living.
The homes are complemented by fully landscaped gardens and attractive communal green areas, creating a welcoming environment for residents to enjoy.
"People can move in and start living straight away," Mr Burke said. "There's nothing to do except put their own stamp on the house."
Eligible properties may also qualify for the First Home Scheme grant, making Abbey View an exciting opportunity for those looking to purchase a new home.
Mr Burke said demand has been evident well before the official launch on Saturday, October 3rd. "We've had people asking about these houses for quite some time," he said, advising prospective buyers to have their finance arrangements in place.
He pointed out that Abbey View is particularly significant because of the shortage of new-build homes currently available in Roscommon Town. "There hasn't been anything of this scale in the centre of Roscommon for several years," he said.
Abbey View has also delivered a significant boost to the local economy, having been constructed by Roscommon Building Company with the support of local tradespeople and contractors.
The project represents a significant local investment and provides much-needed new housing stock in an area where supply has been limited in recent years.
Mr Burke said there is particular satisfaction in seeing a development of this scale delivered by a Roscommon-based builder using local skills and expertise.
"It's great to see a local company creating high-quality homes right in the heart of the town," he said. "A lot of local people worked on this development and there's a real sense of pride in that."
The official launch of Abbey View takes place tdoday Saturday, October 3rd, from 12 noon to 4 p.m..
