Knocklyon: from €395,000Twenty-seven apartments, duplexes and houses in a new phase at Dalriada go on sale this weekend, through Sherry FitzGerald New Homes. Several show units can be viewed.
Dalriada is taking shape off Ballycullen Road, Knocklyon, Dublin 16, beside earlier Ellier Developments schemes at Hunterswood and Woodstown. A second entrance is off Stocking Lane.
Convenience to the M50 is a big plus and a city bus route operates outside the gates of the development.
Two-bedroom apartments cost from €395,000 for 73sq m (786sq ft) of space.
Three-bedroom duplex units of 107sq m (1,152sq ft) start at €450,000.
Bungalows are also on offer in this category.
There are several styles of houses to choose from. Three-bedroom houses of 106-109sq m (1,141-1,178sq ft) are priced from €525,000.
Four-bedroom houses of 124sq m (1,340sq ft) start at €575,000. These are three-storey houses in two distinct styles.
Standard features at Dalriada include high ceilings, Rationel pine doors and windows, Milano kitchens with appliances, Italian Duetto fitted wardrobes and very smart bathrooms with heated towel rail and shower door. Heating is gas.
The houses and apartments come wired for smart home technology and alarm.
The development of 180 houses, bungalows and apartments is laid out in cul-de-sacs to avoid through traffic.
The connection between Stocking Lane and Ballycullen Road will be inaccessible by car, so it won't become a rat run for commuters.
As with all Ellier schemes, landscaping is comprehensive and there is plenty of open space for residents' use. Parking spaces are in courts accessible to the homes they serve.
