Have it all
With the Muileann development in north Co Dublin, Ardstone Homes is offering buyers that winning combination – quality and design at an affordable price
SITTING pretty between the villages of Kinsealy, Malahide and Swords in north Co Dublin, the Muileann development will attract buyers who want affordable homes without compromising on quality or design. The work of Irish housebuilder Ardstone Homes, the first phase of Muileann – at Kettles Lane in Kinsealy – is due to be launched tomorrow week (17 th June). The extensive new development will eventually consist of 148 two, three and four-bedroom A-rated family homes.
Taking its name from the Irish word for ‘mill’, it is less than five minutes’ drive from either Malahide Castle or the Pavilions Shopping Centre, and also close to Dublin Airport. It benefits from the host of amenities on offer in what are some of the most sought-after neighbourhoods in north Dublin.
According to joint agents Savills and Kevin Flanigan Estates, enquiries for the first phase launch have been very strong, and a large turnout is expected when the showhouses open for the first viewing on 17 th June.
The houses in Muileann are well proportioned, ranging in size from 947-980 sq ft for a two-bedroom house, 1,012-1,525 sq ft for a three-bedroom house, the larger of which include an additional study, and 1,582-1,651 sq ft for a four-bedroom house.
When completed, the development will include 10 different house types together with 24 apartments. The exterior of the houses is a combination of full-brick and partial-brick with render, and the overall feel of the development is warm and welcoming. The site is adjacent to a green belt, giving these homes an uncluttered outlook, and will also benefit from an extensive landscaping programme.
Each house has allocated parking to the front and a generously proportioned rear garden. Prices will start at €270,000 for a two-bedroom house, €295,000 for a three-bedroom house and €360,000 for a four-bedroom house.
All of the new homes feature fitted kitchens and appliances, as well as bathroom tiling and fitted wardrobes as standard. The three showhouses that will be on view were fitted out by House & Garden Furnishings, and will demonstrate the various house types and layouts.
The new homes at Muileann are near the Holywell Educate Together, Scoil an Duinnínigh and Pope John Paul II national schools, as well as the Loreto College and Colaiste Choilm secondary schools. Access to the M1 and M50 is nearby, as are stops for the 41C, 102 and Swords Express bus routes.
This scheme is just one of many being developed in Dublin and its commuter belt by Ardstone Homes, whose aim is to offer affordable homes to the first-time buyer market as well as buyers looking to trade up. This will be evident in Muileann and other developments due to launch early next year.
Steve Cassidy, MD of Ardstone Homes, says the company is very excited to bring the new homes to the market.
“We have been working extremely hard to create a consistent standard of quality across our various developments. We are conscious of the challenges faced by homebuyers in today’s market and want to offer cleverly designed, sustainable, well-built homes. Our target is to become one of the largest housebuilders in Ireland so each individual development is very important to us.”
Ardstone Homes is focused on the delivery of new homes in Dublin and its commuter belt, together with Cork and Galway, and has a number of other developments launching in early 2018 including contemporary new schemes in Rathfarnham and Naas, as well as Ashford, Co Wicklow. Other projects at planning stage include developments in Leixlip, Clane, Newbridge, Celbridge and Johnstown in Co Kildare, Oranmore in Galway, and various locations in Cork.
The Muileann showhouses will be open from 12pm to 2pm on Saturday, 17 th and Sunday, 18th June.
