New homes with lower prices from Dundrum to Malahide are on view – and so is a cottage by Cork Harbour, writes ORNA MULCAHYProperty Editor
A further round of price cuts at Wyckham Point in Dublin 16 means that two-bedroom units in the scheme are now at €339,000, around 40 per cent down from 2006 when similar apartments were sold at €540,000.
It’s an attractive well-located scheme midway between Dundrum Town Centre and the M50, apartment blocks curving around three acres of communal gardens that include a small lake. There’s a large gym for residents and a concierge service.
The apartments are larger than average with two-bedroom units ranging from 74-93sq m (800-1,000sq ft) and three-bedroom apartments between 93-186sq m (1,000-2,000sq ft).
Prices start at €249,000 for one-beds while the three-beds start at €450,000. The scheme is being sold jointly by Sherry FitzGerald New Homes and Hooke MacDonald.
On view Saturday and Sunday, 2.30pm-4.30pm
