Santry: from €240,000: Construction at the huge Santry Demesne NorthWood site continues apace with the launch today of phase two at Parklands, the latest apartment scheme in this 200-acre park setting.
Hooke & MacDonald is selling a further 50 apartments, having sold 130 units last spring in phase one. There will be 315 one, two and three-bedroom apartments on this section of NorthWood when completed.
Prices are from €240,000 for one-bedroom units of 44-53sq m (475-570sq ft). Two-bedroom apartments of 62-75sq m (665-810sq ft) cost from €285,000. Good-sized three-bed apartments of 84-90sq m (910-965sq ft) start at €305,000.
One of this development's greatest attractions is its environment: the site, less than five miles from the city centre, is enclosed in grounds with wooded areas, a man-made lake and walking trails.
Santry Demesne has an abundance of deciduous trees and an oak fairy grove. The retention of these trees and restoration of the grounds was a key element of plans for the site. Up to 75 acres has been retained as a public park.
Close to Parklands, a new Crowne Plaza Hotel has just opened its doors and a fitness centre is under construction.
The contemporary apartments have floor-to-ceiling timber-framed windows. Central heating is gas. Standard features include kitchens with integrated appliances (dishwasher, fridge/freezer, washer/dryer, oven and hob). Wardrobes are fitted and most apartments come with a balcony. Security intercom is also standard. Show units are open for viewing on the site, just past the new Crowne Plaza Hotefrom noon today until Sunday next.
