St. Joseph Age Friendly Housing Development

Waterford City and County Council is delighted to announce that works are nearing completion on the St. Joseph’s House Housing Development in Waterford City centre.

Located on a landmark site on Manor Hill, St. Joseph’s House contains 71 dwellings.  The former convent consists of 50 units located (a mix of one- and two-bedroom dwellings) within the main building, while 21 units are located in the various out-building clusters on the site.  The former chapel on the site has been repurposed as a community space for multiple uses by tenants.

Waterford City and County Council is seeking expressions of interest for those interested in living in this remarkable development.
