Burkeway Homes is launching the final phase of new homes at its hugely successful development Ard Raithní, Bearna next week, presenting the last chance for interested parties to secure a new home in one of Galway’s most sought-after locations.
Located in the picturesque coastal village of Bearna, and within easy reach of Galway city, Ard Raithní offers the best of both worlds for homeowners. Situated in the townland of Trusky East, the new development is approximately 500 metres or a five minute walk north of Bearna village.
Since the first phase was released to the market in the summer of 2023, Ard Raithní has been a phenomenal success with close to 110 homes sold in the intervening period. In total, Ard Raithní will consist of 115 homes and a creche facility when fully complete by the end of this year. Overall the development comprises a broad selection of home types, from one and two bedroom apartments to three and four bedroom houses. To date, more than 50 happy purchasers are now residing in their new homes with many more set to move in in the coming weeks and months.
The most recent phase brought to market was in April of this year, when a selection of one and two bedroom apartments were released and quickly sold out. The final phase will consist of a limited number of extremely spacious two bedroom apartments that all benefit from own door entrances and have private south facing terraces and balconies. There is a mix of ground and first floor units coming to market and they vary in size from 98.6sq m (1,061sq ft ) to 106.4sq m (1,145sq ft ).
These two bed homes are well designed by award winning architects McCauley Daye O’Connell in conjunction with Burkeway Homes. Great thought and care has gone into every aspect of the concept to benefit homeowners. The design and orientation of each home has been carefully planned to maximise the use of space and light while benefitting from visually attractive exteriors, all features synonymous with Burkeway Homes developments. They also benefit from an A2 energy rating to help keep homeowners comfortable and provide savings on energy bills.
As well as the superb location and exceptional finish of Ard Raithní homes, purchasers can enjoy the many amenity spaces on offer. The overall development extends to a vast area of more than 18 acres, and there are beautiful common areas with landscaped open green spaces, pocket parks, an all-weather playing surface and children’s playground. The impressive purpose-built creche facility is an added bonus.
A new footpath has been provided by Burkeway Homes from the entrance to Ard Raithní all the way down to the village. This ensures that Bearna village with its host of shops, restaurants and services is safely and easily accessible.
Michael Burke, managing director of Burkeway Homes commented: “All of us in Burkeway Homes are very pleased with the progress at Ard Raithní and encouraged by the strong uptake and positive feedback from our purchasers to date. Construction on site is advancing steadily, with over 50 residents already moved in, bringing super energy and vibrancy to the area. We anticipate being close to full completion by the end of this year, which is a testament to all our great staff and contractors who have worked alongside us on this fantastic project. We are extremely proud of what we have created in Ard Raithní and look forward to handing over more keys to happy purchasers in the remainder of 2025.”
Patrick Cormican of Sherry FitzGerald New Homes added: “Ard Raithní has proved to be a fantastic scheme and one we are delighted to have worked on. Burkeway’s excellent reputation for providing high quality and well-designed homes, in addition to this great location, has ensured that demand was extremely high for all the various unit types and we anticipate very strong interest for the very last phase we will be bringing to the market.”
