The scheme forms part of a structured, long-term urban expansion strategy for the area and has been delivered in partnership with the LDA and Waterford City and County Council to support affordable housing delivery under the Affordable Purchase scheme.

The development is strategically located within close proximity to key employment and education hubs, including university hospital water, SETU and the wider IDA industrial estate, reinforcing strong underlying demand drivers.

Elder Walk establishes an important early residential component within the Summerfields framework, contributing to the formation of a cohesive, planned urban neighbourhood with strong long-term settlement and placemaking characteristics. The estate is now fully occupied and is a well established community.
