The Development

A place shaped by its surroundings.

The Drumlins takes its name from the low, rounded glacial hills that give County Cavan its character.

Set on the Bailieborough Road on the edge of Virginia, the development follows the natural fall of the land, with homes arranged around open green spaces, mature planting and quiet tree lined streets. The five house types are named for the lakes and townlands around them: Ramor, Sheelin, Skeagh, Quilca and Dargen.

Virginia, Co. Cavan

A lakeside market town with four centuries of history.

Virginia is an attractive and thriving town in south County Cavan, beautifully positioned on the shores of Lough Ramor and conveniently located on the N3 between Dublin and Cavan.

Its combination of lakeside setting, strong local amenities and accessibility has made it a particularly popular place to live.

History

The town has its origins in the early 17th century, when it was established during the Plantation of Ulster. Virginia was selected as the location for a new settlement approximately midway between Kells and Cavan and developed over the following centuries as an important market town serving the surrounding agricultural area.

Lough Ramor

Today, one of Virginia's defining features is Lough Ramor, a large and picturesque lake which provides a superb backdrop to the town. The lake and surrounding countryside are popular for walking, boating, angling and other outdoor pursuits, while tree-lined walks along the lakeshore offer an attractive recreational amenity for residents and visitors alike.

Culture and community

Virginia also has a strong cultural and community life. The Ramor Theatre, housed in a beautifully restored former church on Main Street, hosts a varied programme of drama, music and live performances throughout the year.

The town is also home to the annual Virginia Agricultural Show, a long-established and hugely popular event which has been running for over 80 years and remains one of the highlights of the local calendar.

Virginia Park Lodge

Another notable landmark is Virginia Park Lodge, set within extensive grounds overlooking Lough Ramor. The adjoining Virginia Golf Club offers a scenic nine-hole parkland course with tree-lined fairways and views across the lake.

Virginia has developed considerably in recent decades while retaining the character of a traditional market town. It offers a good range of shops, cafés, restaurants, schools, sporting facilities and everyday services, with the added attraction of its lakeside location. Its position on the N3 also provides convenient access towards Dublin, Navan, Kells and Cavan, making it well suited to those looking for a quieter setting while remaining within reach of larger employment and commercial centres.

Virginia combines lakeside charm, excellent amenities and strong transport links, making it an attractive place to live, work and visit.

Buying

Help with your first home.

Both the Ramor and the Sheelin sit inside the price ceilings for the State's buyer schemes, so a first time buyer can use them here. What follows is a summary, not financial advice.

Help to Buy

A tax refund for first time buyers of a new home, worth up to 30,000 euro or ten per cent of the purchase price, whichever is lower. It is claimed through Revenue and paid towards your deposit. The Ramor and the Sheelin both sit within the scheme's price ceiling.

Read the Revenue guidance

First Home Scheme

A shared equity scheme in which the State and participating lenders take a stake in your home to bridge the gap between your mortgage, your deposit and the price. It can be used alongside Help to Buy.

Check the scheme criteria

Your mortgage

Most lenders will advance four times gross income, with a ten per cent deposit for second and subsequent buyers and ten per cent for first time buyers. The selling agents can put you in touch with a local broker who knows the development.

Talk to the selling agents

Scheme rules, ceilings and eligibility are set by Revenue and by the First Home Scheme and can change. Confirm your own position with the selling agents, your lender or a broker before committing.
