Luas fans will be interested in the final five three-bedroom townhouses, showing this weekend at Wingfield, Stepaside, Co. Dublin. Selling agent Sherry FitzGerald New Homes will be taking bookings for these 124 - 137 sq m (1,335 - 1,475 sq ft) mid and end terrace houses, some of which include a study or family room.
Prices start at €479,000 for a three-bedroom mid-terrace house with study and €499,000 for a three-bed end-terrace house with family room. The location is excellent for families, off the Enniskerry Road and inside the gates of the established Cairnfort estate, just past Stepaside Park .
Specification is high at this Liberty Homes scheme, with smart German-designed Wellman kitchens and a range of top quality appliances included. Low voltage recessed and under-counter lighting is also standard and bathrooms come with downlighters.
Bathroom ware is sleek and contemporary with chrome fittings, mosaic tiling and large fitted mirrors. The houses have been designed by McCrossan O'Rourke Manning in three-storey format, with unusual curved top windows and part brick frontages. Landscaped green areas of up to half an acre surround the townhouse blocks.
This area is undergoing a transformation, with the extension of the M50, the newly opened Dundrum bypass and the Luas in operation from Sandyford.
Developer Liberty Homes scored a success with their €65 million mixed residential and office Clarion Quay complex at the IFSC. Going on show on Saturday from 11 am to 1 pm, the five townhouses are built and ready to move into as soon as paperwork is completed.
