The duplexes have also been brought to market, including 10 three-bedroom units (128sq m) priced from €695,000, and 10 two-bed units (77sq m) priced from €500,000. First-time buyers can apply for the help-to-buy scheme when purchasing the two-bed duplex as its price falls at the €500,000 threshold.
The remaining 30 apartments at the scheme will be released as part of a second phase at a later date.
Niall D Brennan & Associates was the architectural firm that designed the homes at The Leys, and it also designed Inglenook Wood across the road from it. The design was inspired by Swiss and Irish architecture and aimed to maximise natural light and functionality, according to the developer.
As with all new houses, these homes have been constructed to be energy efficient with an A Ber rating, featuring air-to-water heat pumps and high-quality insulation, thus making them eligible for green-rate mortgages.
The houses each have a driveway for two cars. The three-beds feature open living/kitchen areas while the four-beds have separate living and kitchen/dining areas. The main bedrooms in both unit types are en suite, while the second bedroom in the four-bed units is also en suite.
The three-bed duplexes have designated parking for two cars (one car for the two-beds). The three-beds feature a terrace to the front and rear of the property.
Fitted kitchens and wardrobes by BeSpace are included as standard, with a natural oak finish and brass handles and taps. Bosch appliances are included subject to signing a contract within 28 days. Bathrooms by Ideal Bathrooms are also included as standard.
The Leys is in a convenient location next to the leafy village of Foxrock and a 15-minute walk to the Ballygoan Wood green-line Luas stop (which takes about 30 minutes to reach Dawson Street in Dublin city centre). It is also a five-minute drive to the M50 and N11, with city, coast and countryside within reach.
