Saggart from €310,000: Houses, duplexes and apartments go on sale at noon today at Millrace, a mixed-use development in the pretty village of Saggart, Co Dublin.
Hooke & MacDonald will be taking bookings for 30 units, and show apartments and houses will be open for viewing. The show units are being sold at this stage.
There is plenty of choice for viewers and prices could appeal to first-time buyer couples commuting to the Citywest Business Park or needing to be within easy reach of the N7.
These start at €310,000 for two-bed apartments of 62sq m (670sq ft). Three-bedroom duplexes of 100sq m (1,120sq ft) cost from €380,000. Three-bedroom townhouses of 90sq m (980sq ft) are priced from €425,000, while four-bedroom plus study townhouses of 150sq m (1,620sq ft) start at €485,000.
Developer William Neville & Sons and architects Anthony Reddy & Associates have produced a contemporary look, with red brick exterior finishes and decking. The apartments have very large windows for maximum natural light, an open-plan kitchen/living area and wardrobes in both bedrooms.
Townhouses come with small front terraces, fenced back gardens and Shaker-style kitchens. Fireplaces are also standard in townhouses. Duplexes have two large decked balconies.
The grounds of Millrace encompass the ruin of Swiftbook Mill, formerly the residence of the family of Dean Jonathan Swift. More recently the mill was known as Clondalkin Paper Mills. Central heating is gas.
Grounds have been enhanced by a comprehensive landscaping programme, with preserved greenery, new planting and water features.
Millrace is close to the centre of Saggart village and surrounded by tall sycamores.
Viewing extends from noon today through to Sunday afternoon.
