Hi,

I'm from county Wicklow, near Blessington. I'd like to buy some land and build a house in the area. I'm wondering what are the chances of buying some agricultural land and getting planning permission for a house on it? Do people do this? If anyone has any information on the process I'd love to hear. There are a few sites 1 and2 acres being sold as agricultural land. If I find something suitable I'd engage a professional to advise on planning etc before buying. I'd just like to know are these 1 and2 acre agricultural sites viable options to get planning permission on? Any info appreciated.
