To date ninety two (92) of the houses at Orchard Park have been sold and work regarding the sales of the remaining eight (8) houses at the estate is ongoing. Kildare County Council has advised that all services, roads, footpaths, etc. at the estate will have to be brought up to the required standard before they can be taken in charge. The matter will be progressed as soon as possible in consultation with Kildare County Council following completion of the new waste water collection/disposal system for the Curragh area at Brownstown.
