Project description
The project offers a range of accommodation types — from single-storey sheltered units to two-storey family homes — creating a balanced and inclusive community. Alongside the housing, the development features public open spaces and a dedicated playground, enhancing overall liveability and adding meaningful social value to the area.
Delivered using Modern Methods of Construction (MMC), including timber frame systems, the scheme benefits from streamlined programme efficiency while maintaining exceptional build quality. All homes are constructed in full compliance with Irish Building Regulations (BCaR), HPI certification requirements, and Universal Design Guidelines, ensuring long-term durability, safety, and accessibility for every resident.
Sustainability is central to the Ravel Drive development. Through the implementation of Green Design Initiatives, each home achieves an A2 Building Energy Rating (BER) and meets nZEB (Nearly Zero Energy Building) standards. These measures deliver comfortable, energy-efficient homes designed for long-term performance and reduced environmental impact.
