Viewers have plenty of choice, with a total of 85 two, three and four-bedroom houses and two-bed apartments on offer. Landscaping is maturing well on this development and the location off Forrest Road is convenient to the airport.
Prices start at €249,950 for two-bedroom apartments of 66-75sq m (710-835sq ft). Two-bed townhouses of 70sq m (760sq ft) cost from €285,000. Three-bedroom townhouses of 91.5-106.5sq m (985-1,050sq ft) are priced from €325,000.
Three-bedroom semis are also available, priced from €375,000 for 104sq m (1,120sq ft) of living space. Four-bedroom detached houses of 108-161sq m (1,160-1,735sq ft) start at €450,000.
The most recent construction phase at Ridgewood, The Cedars is located inside the tree-lined entrance, close to a newly-built crèche, medical centre and convenience grocery. MKN's attention to landscaping at an early stage is now paying dividends at Ridgewood and mature greenery gives a good first impression.
Each house-type has its own style of finish, with good quality kitchens and bathrooms, wardrobes, wall tiling and fireplaces included in the price. Heating is by natural gas. Houses come with private gardens, levelled and seeded and varying in size, according to house-type.
Completions are expected to take place in spring and summer 2006.
