Can someone recommend a nice estate for a family to rent a 3 bed house in?

As the title says, looking to rent a 3 bed house in a nice area of Waterford. Would consider outside but very close to the city as well. Due to having a young child we'd really like a quiet estate not one with loads of parties.

Anyone have any recommendations?

Many thanks.

Been living in Ursuline Court for about 4/5 months now and am finding it a great place to live. Haven't seen or heard of any hassle while I have been there. Superquinn and Lydl only a minutes walk. About 15 minute walk into town. It's great having the new park next to the estate also.

Another+1 for Ursuline Court from me. I've lived there a few times and looking to move back to the area again now. Very handy for everything and nice quiet estate.

Oakridge in ferrybank. Fine big green for the kids but away from traffic and generally just out of the way. 2 mins from aldi, 5 mins from town.

No matter where you move there will always be estates where there are parties, Due to the fact that people bought two and three houses in the boom and now have to rent them out to anybody they can get so youll always get that,

Ive lived in Carraig An Aird near the six cross roads before and it was nice, theres a creche there and seems like alot of kids running around there.

The road is being re-layed and theres a new tesco in ballybeg.

Powerscourt out by Ardkeen wouldn't be a very busy estate, its very well established and I honestly don't think I've ever seen any students in it.

It also has a nice big green space at the back suitable for kids and a nice walk which goes behind the other estates down along the river,

Lisduggan is great. Waterford shopping centre just down the road. Close to primary and secondary schools. Major bus routes into town and other parts of the city (10 minute walk into town anyways). Loads of green areas and sport clubs.

Meadowbank Baile na ndeise is a great place to live, tesco ballybeg just 5 mins walk away, st saviours school and creche too around the corner, the estate is full of familys,
