The latest phase of the Curragh Farm development in Newbridge, Co Kildare, is now for sale with the launch of duplex apartments in the Anthony Neville Homes development on the Ballymany Road, just a few minutes’ drive from the town centre. The own-door two-bedroom duplex properties are contemporary and spacious, measuring 88-90sq m (947-969sq ft).
The duplexes, like other house types that have sold in the scheme since 2022, have A2 energy ratings ensuring sustainability and comfort. With high levels of insulation, underfloor heating, air-source heat pumps and airtight construction, they are cost effective to run and environmentally friendly.
All units have pumped thermostatic shower units and heated towel rails with fully floored bathrooms, while a flooring allowance for other rooms will allow new owners to customise their new home.
The kitchen units by Cawleys are top of the range, offering great storage space, as are the fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms by the same manufacturer.
