Plans have been revealed to convert an old school building in County Waterford into apartments.

A planning application has been submitted for the redevelopment of the former Tramore CBS building at an address of St. Otteran’s Terrace, Tramore.

The application proposes the building’s change of use from educational/community use to residential use.

Under the plans, the building would be converted into a total of 12 residential units.

There would be two one-bed apartments and two two-bed apartments on the ground floor.

On the upper ground floor, there would be three one-bed apartments and one two-bed apartments.

Finally, there would be three one-bed apartments and one-two bed apartment on the first floor.

The works will involve re-fenestration of the existing elevations to accommodate the new layout and the addition of external balconies at the upper levels.

Proposed works also include the removal of an existing pre-fabricated classroom building from the site and alterations and adjustments to the existing site boundaries.

As well as that, plans are in place for the conversion of the existing shed outbuilding to bin store, bike store and bulk storage use.

Work on the provision of on-site car parking and a number of associated siteworks will also be carried out.

The planning application was submitted by Keybuild Services Ltd on June 2 and is currently at the pre-validation stage.

If deemed valid, a decision by Waterford City and County Council is expected by July 27.
