Home buyers camp out to secure sites

PEOPLE eager to purchase property have queued up overnight to reserve a house.

Part of a housing scheme in Kilternan in Dublin has been snapped up by house hunters.

Twenty sites at Bishops Gate, a development of three and four-bedroom houses that are being built on the Enniskerry Road, have already been secured by customers.

They were reserved prior to a private launch on Friday with a further 30 houses to be released on to the market at a later date.

It is understood a crowd turned out to begin queuing on Wednesday evening to secure a site.
