Two Dublin 3 apartment schemes are on offer in an attractive area of north Dublin close to both Fairview and the city centre
Apartments, duplexes and penthouses go on sale today at Fairview Close, a small scheme off Fairview Strand in Dublin 3, within walking distance of the city centre.
Selling agents Brian Dwyer & Partners are taking bookings for 30 units and show apartments will be open for viewing. The developer is Ellen Construction and architects are Malahide firm O'Dwyer & Associates.
Fairview Close is tucked away on a 2.5-acre site stretching from Fairview Strand to Richmond Avenue, with shops and offices at ground floor level facing the street and nicely landscaped surroundings with gravel, slabs and evergreens in giant planters.
Facades are of brick and render, with steel-railed balconies and timber window frames. All the apartments are on upper floors and most have good views across the city. Most have more than one sit-out balcony.
Prices range from €340,000-€360,000 for one-bedroom apartments of 43-46sq m (470-500sq ft).
Two-bedroom units with 65-74sq m (700-790sq ft) of space cost from €440,000 to €480,000.
A small number of three-bed apartments of 98sq m (1,060sq ft) start at €540,000.
Also for sale are two own-door duplex units with two bedrooms and a study, with 91sq m (985sq ft) of interior space and 16sq m (170sq ft) distributed between two large balconies. These cost €565,000.
Likely to prove popular are four two-bedroom penthouses of 68sq m (730sq ft) and 88sq m (945sq ft) with huge roof terraces facing west, costing €530,000 to €560,000.
An underground parking space is included in the price of each unit.
The apartments are ready to move into and ideal for letting. Kitchens come with appliances, bathrooms and kitchens are fully tiled and sittingrooms, hall and bedrooms are floored in semi-solid wood or wood veneer.
The duplex apartments are above ground-floor apartments and entered via a flight of steps. Balconies off the sittingroom and main bedroom on both levels are the main feature.
Magnet Networks have installed a communications cabling system for digital television, broadband and telephone services.
Some units are ready to move into, others will be completed later this year or early 2008.
