Kilmacanogue: from €425,000Large two-bedroom apartments go on sale from plans today at Rocky Valley Crescent, an upscale development in Kilmacanogue in Co Wicklow where large detached houses were sold successfully earlier in the year.
Located beside the Avoca Handweavers complex with its superb arboretum and shop, the apartments priced from €425,000 are likely to appeal to couples trading down from large family homes in south Dublin as well as to locals wishing to stay in an area where there is very little new housing coming on stream. For wealthier buyers, a small number of the large detached houses remain for sale, ranging in size from 232sq m (2,500sq ft) to 312sq m (3,412sq ft), from €1.2m.
Fourteen two-bedroom apartments are available in the developments at the foot of the Sugarloaf. The plans promise a good fitout with Alno kitchens including appliances and walnut worktops. Internal walls will be finished in magnolia; plugs & switches are brushed stainless steel.
Within easy reach of the M50, Rocky Valley Crescent is also a short drive away from Enniskerry, Bray and Greystones.There are good amenities nearby: local golf clubs include Greystones, Old Conna, Glen of the Downs, Delgany, Charlesland, Powerscourt and Druids Glen. A new Ritz-Carlton Hotel is scheduled to open in nearby Enniskerry and the Marriott Hotel is now open in Druids Glen.
