Sandyford from €785,000: A choice of three house styles is on offer at Churchlands, a small development of 10 four-bedroom detached houses almost in the centre of Sandyford village.

Selling agent Harper O'Grady will be taking bookings at a showhouse on the site, which will be open for viewing by appointment on Saturday morning.

Prices start at €785,000 for the smallest 152 sq m (1,636 sq ft ) house - a good-sized house by most standards. Another four-bedroom house type costs €850,000 for 155 sq m (1,668 sq ft) of accommodation. The largest house is priced at €945,000 and has 181 sq m (1,948 sq ft) of living space.

Construction is almost completed and the houses will be ready for occupation as soon as paperwork is completed. They were designed by architect Terry O'Flanagan on traditional lines, with part-brick frontages and tall windows to allow maximum light.

The variety of styles in such a small scheme and its proximity to the M50 and Luas are strong selling points at Churchlands. The smallest house is designed with separate sitting and diningrooms and a big family kitchen/breakfastroom with oak units. The stairwell is top-lit by a roof window. The main bedroom has a shower room en suite and there is a Jacuzzi bath in the family bathroom.

The kitchen in the mid-sized house is large and a garden room provides an alternative sittingroom for families. In the largest house, the main bedroom includes a dressingroom, en suite shower room and a glassed-in balcony. There is also a study and a kitchen. Gardens are walled and landscaped.
