Carrickmines: from €570,000Apartments and townhouses go on sale this weekend at Cairnbrook, a high-spec scheme by Newlyn Group in Carrickmines, Dublin 18. Launched last year, the lucky first buyers are now taking up residence. Similar demand is expected with this release which will be of interest to buyers hoping to trade up or down to an exclusive southside location.
The second phase at the development sees the release of a further 40 apartments available in two separate blocks as well as a terrace of four townhouses. Selling agent Sherry FitzGerald New Homes will be taking bookings this Saturday and Sunday from 2pm to 4pm, and prospective buyers will be able to view two of the two-bedroom show apartments as well as a show townhouse.
Set in superbly landscaped grounds, prices at Cairnbrook start from €570,000 for the two and three-bedroom apartments, and the three-bedroom townhouses with garden start from €695,000.
Large apartments are a feature of new developments but, in keeping with the high standards at Cairnbrook, all the apartments boast above average room sizes, three-metre high ceilings, spacious hallways and wide doorways, as well as several other special features.
The two-bedroom apartments in this phase range from 94-135sq m (1,000-1,600sq ft). There are also a small number of three-bedroom apartments from 120-150sq m (1,300-1,600sq ft).
The proportions alone give these apartments the feel of a well-built house, which will appeal to buyers looking to trade up or down. Other attractive features - like floor-to-ceiling windows, large balconies, custom-designed kitchens with stone worktops and appliances, underfloor heating in the luxurious bathrooms and en suites, state-of-the-art wiring, as well as walk-in wardrobes and plenty of storage - complete the exclusive package.
The three-bedroom townhouses include small rear gardens and balcony to first floor. The living space extends to 97-98sq m (1,000sq ft) over three storeys. All the bedrooms are a good size and include interesting features. The first floor bedroom to the front, for example, has a picture perfect window seat, as well as fitted wardrobes.
Externally, the development is in keeping with the local architectural style and all the units include two car-parking spaces. As well as location, Cairnbrook offers excellent access to public transport, shopping and leisure amenities. It is within easy reach of the proposed Luas extension at the Carrickmines Interchange, the N11 (QBC) and the M50. Completions start from April through to the year end.
