Site Progress Update | Holywood, Co. Down🏡

It’s been another productive week across two of Setanta Construction’s new build sites, located in the beautiful hills of Holywood, Co. Down.

The first, a contemporary bespoke home, that's progressing exceptionally well with internal plastering nearing completion ahead of the final fixtures and fittings. Combining modern style with excellent thermal performance and energy efficiency; the striking cantilever design, expansive glazing and architectural detailing are beginning to showcase what will be a truly spectacular home.

Nearby at our latest site, foundations have been completed and the concrete floor slabs are now being installed. This exciting project will provide a beautifully designed large annex to an established home, creating additional living space that blends seamlessly with the existing property while enhancing both its functionality and value.

Thanks to our dedicated team, subcontractors and suppliers for their continued hard work and commitment 🙌

Keep an eye on our page for more progress updates over the coming weeks.

Coastal Home on the Wild Atlantic Way | Bespoke Timber Frame 💚🌊

We’re proud to showcase this stunning bespoke timber frame home, located on the wild and breathtaking shores of the Inishowen Peninsula in Ballyliffin.

Thoughtfully designed by Marshall Mc Cann Architects to sit seamlessly within its natural surroundings, this project reflects a careful balance between architectural vision and environmental sensitivity. The result is a home that not only looks exceptional, but performs to the highest standards.

Built as a high-quality, high-performing, energy-efficient dwelling, it delivers on comfort, durability, and long-term sustainability; key considerations in modern residential construction.

Having moved in just weeks ago, our clients are already experiencing the benefits of a well-designed and constructed home. Every window captures a striking view, reinforcing the connection between the built environment and the landscape.

While external works are still ongoing, the scale and intent of this generous family home are clear. It’s a home created for living, relaxing, and bringing people together.

A fantastic example of a job well done by our talented team!
