New homes: Stylish townhouses in Castleknock village

A new scheme of nine townhouses in the heart of Castleknock village is located on the junction of Beechpark Avenue and Castleknock Road and is a five-minute walk from Castleknock train station. The elegant townhouses have three storeys and come with a private back-garden and rear patio.

The houses were built by Mariaville properties and designed by Collins Maher Martin. Mariaville has employed Homebond, which offers a 10-year structural guarantee for the properties in the development.

Eight of the townhouses have three bedrooms and are 1,442sq ft, while the only four bedroom house in the scheme is 1,600sq ft.

Interior features at Wendover include wood panelling in the hallway, ceiling spotlights, Villeroy & Boch bathroom fittings. The A3-rated homes come with a fireplace that incorporates a wood-burning stove.

The homes are built with energy-efficiency in mind; windows are triple-glazed and there is an air-to-water heating system,

Kitchens have a sleek black-and-white theme for a contemporary feel and come with granite worktops. In the three-bedroom houses, two of the bedrooms are en suite while the master bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe.

There is parking for two cars at the houses and there are cobble pathways leading around a landscaped open green. Phoenix Park is 800m from the houses, as is the M50 exit, making it ideal for commuters. Houses are priced at €550,000 for the three-bedroom homes and €635,000 for the four-bedroom house. Five sold at the weekend and four remain.

Newcombe estates said the homes have been bought by locals who are keen to remain in Castleknock.

Newcombe says this is the only development to have been built in the centre of Castleknock village for several years.
