    New Houses in Diswellstown Castleknock

    There's probably a shared feed in the apartments but not for the houses. You'd have to put up your own Sky dish. There is Virgin broadband in the estate, not sure about Sky or Eir. My neighbour says Sky don't have broadband here but I've never checked. You can change the settings on the...

    I actually noticed these chaps on Saturday night and meant to tell the security guard - thanks for reminding me. You should mention it as well so that they know I'm not just a crank. They made for the only part of the estate where there are unoccupied new houses and no street lighting yet. I'm...

    1) There are floor plans on the planning permission application on the Fingal planning application website. You'll have to dig for them but they're there. There's also a link to it somewhere in the previous few pages on this thread. 2) We got a company call Thorntons - happy with job. There's...

    We have a north-facing lavery and I was a little worried about this too. However, we're pleasantly surprised. It's never as dark outside as it is this time of year and yet it's fine in the kitchen. Certainly no need for lights during the day or anything like that. Bottoms end of the garden even...

    Regarding (b), I took this to mean that it wouldn't be millimeter perfect to whatever plans are in place, i.e. cover themselves against the guy coming in on a Friday morning 2 hours fresh from Coppers and forgot to bring his measuring tape with him. I think it's unlikely to be materially...

    Got an email the other day from Sherry saying that the third phase was being launched today, and continuing over the weekend. Not surprised at the queues and level of interest.

    Osborne is a slight modification of a Swift. I'm not sure if all of them are red bricks but some definitely are. The price increases were mooted long before the help-to-buy scheme and are just an indication of the sellers' market that we're in. The help-to-buy scheme is a factor no doubt, but...

    There are queues to join queues to view to rooms to rent these days. D15 is not that far from the city centre and is well served by bus and train. Not everyone has the 400k+ for a house and apartments are at least attainable for people or couples on single incomes. So I don't see how they...

    According to the online plan, I think it's too late - "The submission/observation period for this application expired on 02-Aug-2016"

    Just an update on the gate between DM and HP; HP have submitted updated information to the coco on a number of items, among which one of them was about the gate. They have submitted a letter from the receiver responsible for DM giving blessing for opening it on their side and HP have said they...

    Regarding Hamilton Park, some of things being mentioned here go against what is officially in the planning permission (yes, I know planning can be modified but we have to work with what's planned now). I'm not sure if it's estate agent hearsay or wishful thinking, or someone has an inside line...

    Lol, it's certainly some big wig's house anyway. Google Maps shows a helipad, tennis courts, pool house, etc

    Hi Annette, Any other considerations on the north-facing Laverys, or just the Laverys in general, now that you're in there? We're thinking of purchasing one shortly. Do you think a pagoda/decking area down the end of the garden would get sun during the summer for most of the day? What are you...
