Glasnevin: from €255,000: Eighty-eight one and two-bedroom apartments and two-bedroom duplexes go on sale today in the penultimate phase at Riverbank Hall at Addison Park, Glasnevin.
Prices are from €255,000 for 46 sq m (495 sq ft) one-bedroom units and €345,000 for 75 sq m (813 sq ft) two-bedroom apartments in the main block. In a block nearby, three-bedroom duplex units of 101 sq m (1,085 sq ft) cost from €445,000, with two-bedroom own-door apartments from €345,000. Sizes are good throughout this development. Agent Hamilton Osborne King will open show units today, tomorrow and over the weekend.
On a prime site in the former grounds of Holy Faith Convent, this scheme bears the hallmarks of a Park Developments project. Swish contemporary Seimatic kitchens include a range of integrated appliances, beech-look wardrobes in bedrooms and bathrooms come fully tiled. Balconies are large.
The 250-unit scheme is on the banks of the Tolka and large tracts of open landscaping provide a spacious feel. In this five-storey block, east-facing apartments look over the school grounds and fields, while south-facing units have a view of the Botanic Gardens. As windows are floor-to-ceiling, the exterior facade seems mostly glass, with timber frames and black metal balconies.
One-bedroom units are on the ground and first floors, with a good-sized kitchen/sittingroom and a door to the balcony or terrace from the sittingroom and bedroom.
Two-bedroom apartments vary in size from 75-78 sq m (813-840 sq ft) with large wrap-around balconies. Both bedrooms are doubles, with an en suite shower off the main room.
Three-bedroom duplexes are large at 83 sq m (1,085 sq ft) and well finished. All bedrooms are a good size and include wardrobes, with an en suite shower off the main bedroom. Beneath the duplexs are four own-door two-bedroom apartments of 63 sq m (685 sq ft). These have two double bedrooms, a bathroom and an open-plan kitchen/living area opening to a west-facing terrace. Construction is well under way at Riverbank Hall and apartments and duplexes in this phase are expected to be ready from late summer. Service charges are €1,200 for one-bedroom apartments and €1,500 for two-bedroom apartments in the larger block. Duplexes will cost €1,100, with €950 for the two-bedroom apartments underneath.
