On the results page, scroll down to documents and select it.
Click the site layout plans on the bottom of page 5 (3rd last one).
Lots of good details on other files too, plenty of development to be done.

There's a reasonably decent view from where I'm located. The image below gives an outline of progress thus-far from what I can see.

Is there a timeline with these houses? We are interested in a 3/4 bed but when I have enquired it’s just a generic thanks for applying with no real info about completion dates or costs.

Thanks

although the site map provided by skylark in the brochure does not have garden dimensions,

the sitemap plans submitted to the planning permissions have the garden sizes in them - you could use them?

then
go to page 5 (link is http://documents.fingalcoco.ie/NorthgateIM.WebSearch/Results.aspx?grdResultsP=5 but probably useless)
then checkout "Site Layout Plan /Block Plan"
the document name is 00642519.pdf

There's been a massive amount of progress since construction restarted. From the view I've got, the roofs and windows are installed on all houses on the right hand side of the image in the first post. External blockwork is progressing for those on the bottom right. Predictions of Q4 completion seem attainable.

Hi all

I am hoping to buy a house in the next phase of Skylark which I have been told will be released in the coming months. Just wondering how this works with new builds? Is the mortgage drawdown and sale completed at the time you put your name down for a house or do you wait until the house is built which I assume would be some months later?

Thanks!

Look forward to it. Can finally see the outline of my house in the ground. They made a lot of progress since the last video.

I guess it's only a month till Q4. Be interesting to see if the build time predictions hold true. Has anyone been contacted with an expected date for snagging or anything? I'm not till Feb but keen to know if the schedule sticks

I was told yesterday that we should hopefully be snagging within 6-8 weeks, and plan was still to be in house by start of October. I wondered if anyone who has bought a 3 bed has sorted floors yet?

What are folk's opinions on the rendered finish v the brickwork?

Cant say I'm too happy with yellow. I was told during viewing it would be a white rendered finish.

This really should've been portrayed to us.

Our road is going to look quite different from the rest of the estate.

The scaffolding has been taken down so I presume that is the final design.

Is there definitely not going to be brick? I’m really surprised as the showhouses had brick. I’ve to ring the agent next week so might ask then

As far as I'm aware houses 6,7 & 9 are the only houses getting the brick facade.

The rest are getting rendered only.

I really hope I am incorrect & the estate agent was incorrect.
