Gardaí have begun door-to-door enquiries to try to establish when the man was last seen alive and whether anyone heard any disturbance at the house in the 150-house estate.
They have also begun canvassing houses in the area to see whether there is any CCTV footage that would help them identify anyone who may have entered the house.
Gardaí say the investigation will be guided by the postmortem that is expected to take place at University Hospital Waterford later today.

Convicted killer arrested on suspicion of murder of father of two in Dublin
A convicted killer has been arrested on suspicion of the murder of Mark Carroll in Finglas, West Dublin. The man, who is in his 30s and previously served jail time over a prior killing, was arrested by Gardaí in relation to the June 9, 2024 murder on Monday. The suspect previously left the jurisdiction and has been sought by detectives since Mr Carroll, 34, was stabbed to death in a house in the Scribblestown area of Finglas at around 1am that morning. He was arrested by Gardaí investigating the murder, having returned to Ireland. The man is well known to Gardaí and has a prior conviction in connection with the death of a woman. In a statement, Gardaí confirmed the arrest, saying: 'As part of the investigation into the murder of 34-year-old Mark Carroll, who died following an incident in Finglas, Dublin 11, on Sunday, June 9th, 2024, Gardaí have arrested a man. "The man (aged in his 30s) is currently detained pursuant to Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act 1984, at a Garda Station in the Dublin area. "Investigations are ongoing.' It's understood the convicted killer – who is suspected of stabbing Mr Carroll during an argument – had been with the victim at a property near the Scribblestown area of Finglas when the incident happened. Mr Carroll was treated at the scene by paramedics and was rushed to Connolly Hospital in nearby Blanchardstown – where he lost his fight for life.

Photo: PSNI/PA Northern Ireland authorities believe triple murder suspect Ian Rutledge moved back into the Fermanagh home of his wife Vanessa Whyte and their two teenage children after his family became aware of his deteriorating eyesight. PSNI detectives are investigating whether the suspected triple murder-suicide had been planned in advance by the former truck driver – or whether it was triggered by a dispute in the family home. Ms Whyte (45) and her two children, James (14) and Sara (13), died from gunshot injuries inflicted at their Maguiresbridge home on July 23. The only suspect in the triple shooting, Rutledge (43), was discovered by PSNI officers at the property with gunshot wounds. He died in hospital last Monday from his injuries. The former agricultural contractor had suffered catastrophic brain injuries. He was Ms Whyte's husband and the father of James and Sara. Ian Rutledge A legally held firearm was recovered from the scene. The PSNI believe Rutledge shot his wife and children before turning the firearm on himself. Ms Whyte – who is survived by her mother, Mary, and her siblings, Geraldine, Regina, Anita, Ivor and Stephen – was buried alongside her two children in her native Clare last Saturday. Friends and family hailed her as a kind-hearted and caring individual who was devoted to her family. One friend said that trying to help someone in need was second nature to Ms Whyte. Thousands attended the funeral in Barefield, Co Clare. There were emotional scenes as the three coffins were carried into the Church of the Immaculate Conception, the church where Ms Whyte made her holy communion and confirmation. The University College Dublin veterinary studies graduate had planned to travel back to her native Clare for the August bank holiday weekend with her children to visit her family and attend some Clare hurling championship matches. The only comfort we have is that Vanessa, James and Sara are together and finally safe She was a lifelong Clare hurling fan and attended the 2024 All-Ireland final with her children. The funeral had guards of honour from GAA clubs in Clare, Galway and Fermanagh. Ms Whyte's sister, Regina, said she had been taken from the world and her loving children in a cruel and vicious manner. 'For us, as a family, the only comfort we have is that Vanessa, James and Sara are together and finally safe,' she said.

Photo: Liam McBurney/PA Wire The Bishop of Ferns, Ger Nash, who was previously a cleric in Killaloe, noted that the Whyte family had asked people to wear bright colours in tribute to Ms Whyte and her two children. Outside the church, three flagpoles had the Irish, Clare and St Joseph's- Doora Barefield colours flying at half mast. Dozens of balloons in the saffron and blue colours of Clare surrounded the three coffins, with Ms Whyte's coffin covered by the maroon and white colours of St Joseph's-Doora Barefield, the club her late father and two brothers proudly played for. 'We need that light,' Bishop Nash said. He told mourners that darkness cannot overcome light for those of faith. 'It is hinted at in the bright colours that Vanessa, James and Sara's family have asked people to wear.' 'The darkness will not conquer.' Dozens of mourners attended from Fermanagh, where a special memorial service for the mother and children was held last Wednesday evening. The PSNI are now trawling through all electronic data from mobile phones and computers to determine the precise sequence of events that led to the deaths. Detectives are aware that Rutledge had been experiencing depression over recent weeks and months.
