    Yes there's actually a new estate being built up just up the road from us, looks like there will be a lot of houses in it

    quick update.
    I ended up buying in loughrea. i got a house just a stones throw from the lake. i have been there a few months now.
    I must say im very pleased , Loughrea is a lovely town, it has loads of amenities and great shops, pubs and restaurants for a town of its size. The people are friendly and the gorgeous views at the lake are a major bonus. :)

    Great to hear things all worked out, you're not far from me by the sounds of it and its a lovely side of the town to be on. The lake and playground is a huge plus :)
