Dublin 1: from €340,000If a central location is a priority, a new apartment development under construction off the Liffey quays could appeal. Castleforbes Square is on Castleforbes Street, just off the riverfront between the IFSC and the Point Depot in Dublin 1.
One, two and three-bedroom apartments are set around a classic landscaped courtyard, where offices, a restaurant, shops and a crèche are planned.
Joint agents Hooke & MacDonald and Gunne New Homes are offering 54sq m (580sq ft) one-bedroom apartments from €340,000. Two-beds of 64-78sq m (680-830sq ft) start at €440,000. Three-beds of 89sq m (950sq ft) are priced from €530,000. Show units will be open for viewing from noon today.
Developed and built by Danninger, Castleforbes Square is at an advanced stage of construction and prospective buyers can view first-hand the brick and render facades, landscaped courtyards and balconies (with most units).
Interiors include good quality kitchens and bathroom fittings. Lifts serve all floors.
Good transport links are a major attraction at Castleforbes Square, with Connolly Station, the Dart and new Docklands Station within walking distance and the proposed Luas extension a bonus when it comes. The new Calatrava Bridge will link the development with the south quays.
