Finding a new abode is a walk in the park
The Park at Hansfield, Dublin 15
HANSFIELD, which was singled out by Fingal County Council in the early noughties for fast-track planning, sits to the north of a green belt running west from the Phoenix Park, through Farmleigh, Luttrellstown, Westmanstown and on towards the Carton Estate in Maynooth.
After Hansfield Wood, a scheme launched in 2016, was sold out, the developer, Alanna Homes, set about building a new development called The Park at Hansfield. Set around five acres of open parkland, it will consist of 213 homes — including apartments — when it is eventually finished.
Some 50 homes at The Park at Hansfield were sold off the plans before an official launch at the end of September. A second release, consisting of 11 three- and four-bed homes, came on stream at the weekend, with five properties still for sale. Prices start at €335,000 for a three-bed semi-detached of 1,184 sq ft to 1,281 sq ft, while a 1,448-sq ft four-bed version costs from €400,000.
The facades of the Delphi Architects-designed homes are finished in a combination of brick and monocouche render. The front door, as well as the double-glazed patio door and windows, come from Munster Joinery.
Inside, there is an Irish-made custom-designed kitchen with softclose doors and drawers. Extensive wall and floor tiling, sanitary ware and shower screens come as standard in the bathrooms and en suites, while the bedrooms are fitted with contemporary-style wardrobes.
The homes at The Park at Hansfield were designed to have an A3 BER. Each is equipped with a Joule air-to-water central heating system. For commuters, the neighbourhood is served by the 39 and 39a bus routes and by Hansfield train station, while the M50 is a 10-minute drive away. The showhomes — featured last month in the TV3 programme
Showhouse Showdown, in which the public judges two identical homes styled by competing interior designers — will be on view tomorrow and Sunday, between 2pm and 4pm.
