Kingscroft Homes in Oranmore Driving New Supply in Galway
7 February 2026 | 📧 editor@ipropertyradio.com
A new housing release by Kingscroft Developments at Cnoc an Chaisleáin in Oranmore, County Galway, is underway, offering a range of high-specification family homes as demand for new homes in Galway remains strong. The development is positioned to appeal to a broad buyer profile including commuting professionals, growing families and downsizers seeking space, quality and connectivity.
Situated approximately 8 km east of Galway city centre and adjacent to Galway Bay on Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way, Cnoc an Chaisleáin combines a village setting with strong transport links. Oranmore lies on the main Dublin–Galway rail line and offers rapid rail connections, while road access is provided via the M6 national motorway. This locational mix supports both local and inter-urban commuting patterns.
The scheme comprises a mix of two, three and four bed detached and semi-detached houses, mid-terrace units, and duplex and ground-floor apartments. Floor plans indicate typical family formats from 90 m² two-bed units up to 163 m² four-bed detached homes, with a selection of house types designed to suit varied household needs.
Every home is designed to achieve a minimum A2 Building Energy Rating, utilising high-efficiency air-to-water heat pumps, high-insulation envelopes with low-emissivity argon-filled glazing, and contemporary low-maintenance exteriors. Internal specifications emphasise generous natural light, open living spaces, custom kitchens, fitted wardrobe storage and quality bathroom fittings. Homes also include a comprehensive electrical specification with data and TV points throughout and provisions for modern connectivity.
Kingscroft’s entrance into the Galway market reflects wider housebuilding trends in Ireland’s regional centres, where supply has historically lagged demand. Previous releases at Cnoc an Chaisleáin saw strong buyer interest in early phases, with sales agreed across three and four-bed formats as construction progressed. Continued releases in 2026 follow this initial uptake.
Prospective buyers are invited to register interest for upcoming releases and showhouse visits by appointment. Brochures and further development information are available through the project’s sales agents: Sherry FitzGerald New Homes 091 569 123
