Stillorgan from €380,000:  A small apartment scheme in Stillorgan offers what looks like good value as it is relaunched on the market after a change of agency.

In line with most new homes developments coming on stream this season, prices have been reduced at Wolverston, an infill scheme of six apartments on Stillorgan Park Avenue.

The scheme, on a well-regarded cul-de-sac off the N11, first came to the market last November. Two apartments were released but neither sold.

Now selling agent Sherry FitzGerald has cut prices significantly with one apartment in the scheme being cut by 35 per cent.

Prices start at €380,000 for a 48sq m (517sq ft) one-bedroom apartment, down from €440,000. Two-bedroom apartments start at €480,000 for a 53sq m (570sq ft) unit, down €130,000 from last year or 21 per cent.

The most dramatic price drop has been on the 114sq m (1,227sq ft) duplex two-bedroom unit. This is now priced at €715,000 down from €1.1 million.

The standard of finish at Wolverston is very good. Developer Damien Keogh Construction is clearly pitching the scheme at hip young professionals.

The apartments have ceramic tiled floors in the kitchens and bathrooms, wooden floors in living areas and carpets in the bedrooms. Kitchens are high gloss with walnut finish.

Worktops are granite and built-in appliances are Neff. All apartments, bar one of the two-bedroom units, have utility rooms - a rarity in apartment schemes. All units have balconies or terraces.

Wolverston is within walking distance of Stillorgan village and Blackrock. There is one car-parking space per unit.
