An unfinished housing estate in Co Wicklow has sold ahead of an auction which gave it a €350,000 guide price, having been built on a site bought for €9.5 million in 2006.
The site has planning permission for 54 houses; 15 of which had been completed.
The buyer of the estate is a local developer who had bid €8m for the property before it was put up for auction, and ultimately sold for €1.5m more, in 2006.
The site was the former grounds of Blessington GAA Club.
