Templeogue apartments on half an acre have €2m guide price
A feasibility study by Shay Cleary Architects demonstrates the potential for a development of between 16 and 20 dwellings under a choice of two designs. Each option would rise to three storeys and could be either three-storey townhouses or a combination of duplexes and apartments.
The site is zoned residential under South County Council Development Plan 2022-2028.
Springfield Avenue is well connected by public transport with a number of bus routes within walking distance.
Nearby Templeogue offers a range of amenities including cafes, pubs and shops while Terenure is located just 1.8 kilometres from the property.
A number of schools are also within walking distance including Terenure College, Templeogue College and Our Lady's School.
Cliona Lenihan, of the development and land consultancy team at CBRE, said that the Springfield Avenue property is located in a prime residential area.
"While there is no planning in place, the current passing income from the properties will be appealing to a wide range of investors and developers seeking redevelopment opportunities. We expect to see strong interest from a wide range of parties based on its location and its proximity to Templeogue village and Dublin city centre."

I married to get a Green Card to the States, admits pharma boss Sheridan
Presidential hopeful Gareth Sheridan has admitted he secured American citizenship as a result of a 'green card' marriage. And if elected Ireland's youngest ever head of State, the millionaire businessman said he has no intention of giving back the citizenship he obtained under controversial circumstances. Describing how he became a US citizen following his campaign launch this week, Mr Sheridan said: 'We got married initially in America, then we had our big ceremony back in Kildare. Our initial wedding was more of a means to stay together – more I would get my Green Card, essentially.' Pressed further about his marriage to his American-born wife Heidi, he replied: 'Yeah exactly, it was solely [to get a Green Card], we would have had to split up. 'Heidi and I were very serious at that point. We said we would jump the gun on what we already discussed would be a wedding in our near future. 'I think absolutely I will hold onto it [American citizenship]. I travel on my Irish passport. I am an Irish person before anything else.' Gareth Sheridan at the Tullamore Show. Pic: Alf Harvey If he were to win, Mr Sheridan would be the first president since Eamon de Valera to have US citizenship. The Dublin-born businessman made the admission in an interview a day after he launched his campaign on Thursday. He is hoping to get on the Presidential ticket by persuading members of four local authorities to nominate him as a candidate. According to the pharma businessman, two people on four local authorities have agreed to propose and second him as a potential candidate, and he claims to have had a favourable response from four other councils. But he will need the approval of four councils to enter the race. Independent Senator Sharon Keogan is helping his campaign. Born on Dublin's southside, Gareth Sheridan grew up in Terenure and was educated at the fee-paying Terenure College. After studying at the Dublin Institute of Technology he emigrated to America, where the father of one made his fortune through his company Nutriband, which developed a range of products using patches to administer vitamins and other medications.

However, the company has been linked to controversies, some of which were highlighted this week as Mr Sheridan prepared his Presidential launch. The young businessman and a business partner were both fined $25,000 by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for providing misleading information about some of their company's products. Three associates involved in Mr Sheridan's company – Serguei Melnik, Sergei Glinka, and Vitalie Botgros – have found themselves at the centre of separate corruption investigations in Moldova and Romania. There have also been allegations of money laundering, suitcases of cash, creditors being left without their money and threats to national security. Mr Melnick was a shareholder in a company that took over the Republic of Maldova's flag carrier, Air Moldova. But after the deal went through, the Moldovan equivalent of the Criminal Assets Bureau seized the assets of both firms amid claims of 'large scale money laundering' and 'fictional transactions'. Mr Melnick is currently at the helm of Nutriband while his business partner is on the campaign trail to become Ireland's next President. It has also been reported that authorities in Romania are investigating their colleague, Sergei Glinka, over a deal that may pose national security concerns. Both Mr Glinka and Mr Botgros worked for a now-sanctioned Russian railway company called Makhmudov, which has been linked to the sanctioned Russian billionaire, Iskander Makhmudov. Asked about his three associates who have found themselves at the centre of various corruption probes and allegations, Mr Sheridan first defended them by claiming their backgrounds had been checked by various regulators.

And when asked if the three men, who have a major stake in his company, are 'squeaky clean', the millionaire replied: 'Well, I don't know' – before adding: 'If the narrative is that I have some sort of Russian ties, it's absolutely 100% categorically false. I'm saying [I'm] nowhere near it – 100%, not tied to any of that. I'm getting [described as] 'Russian stooge' in one sentence and 'MAGA [Make America Great Again] enthusiast' on the next. 'I mean, that doesn't mesh very well, but I'm a proud Irishman who wants to do a good job and that's what I am.' Mr Sheridan moved back to Ireland with his wife Heidi and the couple's adopted daughter Roe in February after deciding late last year to put himself forward as a candidate to succeed President Michael D Higgins. Despite making housing his campaign pitch for the Áras, the 35-year-old admitted he does not have a solution of how to solve the crises that bedevilled successive governments. 'Well, I don't have the answers to it right now. Collectively, as a country, we need to bring in more voices on it, particularly the younger generations. 'Wouldn't it be a beautiful thing if the younger generations' energy, enthusiasm and entrepreneurship was involved and paired with all the experience of the older generations?' Asked why he is seeking the ceremonial role of President rather than trying to make a difference on the ground by contesting local or Dáil elections, he replied: 'I'm not a politician. It depends on how you look at it – what I'm trying to do is encourage younger participation. If they feel they have a figurehead that they can relate to and represents them. 'One person going into the Dáil, if it was me – to try and enact changes doesn't happen, but encouraging a whole generation of people to now pick up interest and feel like they have a voice, then we're setting a movement.'

Gallagher quit Nutribrand after firm decided to change chairman, says presidential hopeful Sheridan
Former presidential candidate Seán Gallagher resigned from his role at Nutribrand after it decided to replace him as chairman, the company's chief executive, Gareth Sheridan , has said. Mr Sheridan, who announced his own bid for the presidency over the weekend, said the company was 'surprised' when Mr Gallagher raised the issue of a basketball corporate box in his January 2022 resignation letter. The 35-year-old pharma businessman from Terenure in Dublin intends to run as an independent candidate, seeking a nomination from local authorities to get on the ballot paper. Mr Sheridan cofounded US-based Nutribrand in 2012, which utilises technology to prevent the abuse of patch medications such as fentanyl. READ MORE Mr Gallagher, another Irish businessman who came second in the presidential race of 2011, became chairman of Nutribrand in 2018. However, according to Mr Sheridan, Mr Gallagher resigned from the role in January 2022 when communications broke down over a change in corporate structure. A spokesman for Mr Sheridan said Mr Gallagher's resignation came shortly after the company decided his role should be filled by 'someone with US capital markets experience'. It was decided that Serguei Melnik, a cofounder of Nutribrand, would be appointed chairman and that Mr Gallagher would 'voluntarily vacate' the role and remain as director on the same remuneration package. 'Communication broke down at this point,' the spokesman said, and Mr Gallagher submitted a resignation in January 2022. The spokesman said the company was 'surprised' when Mr Gallagher referenced a corporate box in his resignation letter. In 2020 the company paid $180,000 for a corporate box from basketball team Orlando Magic at the Amway Arena Stadium in Florida, for a renewable one-year period. The company described it as a 'good fit' because 'it is the NBA's most prominent team in the fight against the misuse of opioids'. Nutribrand retains this corporate box and has extended its contract, the spokesman said. Also declared as presidential contenders are former MEP Mairead McGuinness, selected as Fine Gael's candidate, and Independent TD for Galway West Catherine Connolly, who has support from Oireachtas members. No other parties have announced candidates as yet.

'Who the hell is Gareth Sheridan', the pharma tycoon hoping to run for president?
'Who the hell is Gareth Sheridan?' These are the words of the man himself as he admitted in a recent social media video that most people do not have a clue who he is or what he stands for. It is a question many have been asking since the Dublin pharma tycoon crash-landed into the presidential election on Sunday. So, who the hell is Gareth Sheridan? Aged 35, he could become the youngest ever presidential election candidate if he manages to get on the ticket. From Terenure, south Dublin, Mr Sheridan attended Terenure College and Stratford College, both in south Dublin, according to an interview with Offaly Express last week. He studied at DIT on Aungier Street, now TU Dublin, graduating with a degree in business and management in 2012. It was here he started developing Nutriband, a company which would make him a multi-millionaire. Mr Sheridan began to explore transdermal patches — medicine delivered through the skin — for vitamins as part of his college thesis. The inspiration came from patches his father was using. He admitted during an interview with the Entrepreneur Experiment he has 'no pharma background, no biotech background'. When he finished college, he started painting houses for his father's company to fund his idea. Nutriband was registered in April 2011. Company records show an initial investment of €10,000. In 2014, Mr Sheridan won Ireland's Young Entrepreneur of the Year. He was then contacted by a company in Utah that was interested in his idea, and Mr Sheridan started travelling to the US. It was here he met his now-wife, Heidi, a former model. Mr Sheridan sold Nutriband to the US firm but re-acquired it at the age of 25 and brought in new business partners. In 2016, Nutriband was listed on the over-the-counter markets, with Mr Sheridan living in Florida and 'driving Ubers' to make ends meet. In February 2018, businessman Sean Gallagher, a former presidential election hopeful, became company president. He departed four years later, with Mr Sheridan insisting this week he had not sought his advice on his presidential campaign. After several failed attempts, Nutriband was listed on Nasdaq in December 2021. The company is now attempting to produce pain medicine patches, at a time when America is gripped by an opiate crisis. Mr Sheridan said the patches would make strong painkillers more accessible, while also making them difficult to abuse. The US Food and Drug Administration recently granted Nutriband a meeting regarding its fentanyl patch. Although the company was based in Florida, Mr Sheridan lived in Salt Lake City, Utah, with his wife. However, the couple relocated back to Dublin earlier this year, moving to Stillorgan with their adopted daughter Roe, 2. In an interview with the Irish Mirror earlier this year, Heidi Sheridan said they moved after the re-election of President Donald Trump, adding she did not want her child to have to take part in 'active shooter drills'. As reported by the Irish Examiner, Mr Sheridan has been lobbying councillors in recent months with the support of independent senator Sharon Keogan. His team says he has sufficient support from at least four councils. It appears, however, this only means he has a proposer and a seconder rather than the councils themselves in the bag. Whether this will be enough to get him on the ticket will not become clear for another few weeks.
