Foxrock home of convicted murderer Graham Dwyer put up for sale

The former south Dublin home of the convicted murderer Graham Dwyer has been put up for sale. The architect's three-bedroom house, at the end of a tree-lined cul-de-sac off Kerrymount Avenue in Foxrock, has been placed on the market for €595,000.

Dwyer was arrested at the house on October 17th, 2013, and has remained in custody since then. He is serving a life sentence in the Midlands Prison after being convicted, in 2015, of the murder of the 36-year-old childcare worker Elaine O’Hara, in 2012.

Dwyer is appealing his conviction, although this remains on hold pending a Supreme Court judgment concerning the State's appeal of a High Court finding on its data-retention laws. Dwyer is arguing that data gathered from his phone should not have been used at his trial; it played a key part in his conviction.

In what its selling agent described as a bank sale, 6 Kerrymount Close was placed on the market through the Wyse estate agency on Monday afternoon. The selling agent, Liam Quain, said viewings will take place by appointment only.
