Sheehan Architects Ltd

Eleanor Sheehan Architects, founded in 2006 by architect Eleanor Sheehan, is a RIAI‑registered practice based in Rathdrum, just ten miles south of Wicklow town. The studio serves clients across County Wicklow, delivering bespoke one‑off houses and thoughtfully designed extensions that respond to the unique character of each site.

The practice offers a full‑service pathway from the initial consultation through sketch design, detailed surveys and planning‑permission submissions, to tender construction drawings, mortgage certification and on‑site inspections. Their expertise extends to preparing land‑registry maps and providing comprehensive support throughout the build. New‑build projects are individually crafted to meet client requirements, with an emphasis on energy efficiency – achieving A‑rated standards through modern insulation, ventilation and heating – and on maximising views and optimal orientation. Extensions are similarly tailored, often re‑configuring existing spaces to create seamless, functional additions.

A recent extension designed by Eleanor Sheehan Architects was showcased on the prestigious Home of the Year programme, underscoring the firm’s commitment to high‑quality, innovative residential architecture.
