After over 10 years abroad we are returning to Ireland and will be working in Dublin. We are originally from the country but have lived in Dublin before (South Side). We have no particular ties to any part of the city. We have two children (a boy of 6 and a girl of 4). We plan on renting a house for a year and then buying – in the same area (presuming we like the area).
For both the rental and long-term purchase we want:
- 3/4 bedroom house,
- garden,
- proximity to shops, parks and green spaces very important – “village” feel if possible.
- Choice of a range of good schools v. imp.
- good transport links).
One of us will be working in South City Centre (off Merrion Square) and the other on the north side (off Navan road near Phoenix Park).
Budget for rental will be max €2k per month. Long-term purchase we are looking at around €500k – but could stretch a little.
We had thought Castleknock was a possibility? But we are open to all ideas.
