MORE SPACE AND a sense of community is reason enough for any young family to buy a house in a brand new development. Throw in close proximity to Dublin city centre and plenty of amenities on the doorstep and they’re onto a winner.
A new collection of homes that fits this bill perfectly is Harpur Lane. A development of two, three and four-bed homes in Leixlip, Co Kildare, Harpur Lane shares the same lime road as Leixlip Gate, which was once a gateway to the Castletown Estate, the historic house in Celbridge
Eight three-bedders are now available to buy at Harpur Lane and house hunters can choose between a mid-terrace, end-of-terrace or semi-detached home.
Thoughtfully designed and well-laid-out, the rooms inside comprise a hallway that links to a sitting room and then a kitchen that incorporate the dining space and also steps out onto the private back garden via double doors. A utilty room and a downstairs guest toilet complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, the bedrooms are spacious and bright with the main enjoying its own bathroom, while the other two share the family bathroom.
Every home has an A2 BER, ensuring cosiness with low bills, and this is thanks to a high level of insulation, energy-saving LED fitting and a heat pump with zoning controls.
With a private garden, as well as plenty of public green spaces to make use of, Harpur Lane is a great choice for first-time buyers, growing families and commuters who still might need to make it to Dublin every so often. There is space to the front of the house for up to two cars, and they’re likely to stay there thanks to the handy transport links to the capital.
Commuters can access Dublin City Centre in less than 30 minutes by car or there is a regular Dublin Bus service and a train connection from Leixlip Louisa Bridge train station.
The development also sits close the 120 acres of parklands that surround Castletown Estate, room for the kids to run around and for daily dog walks, will be a breeze. Leixlip village and the surrounding area is full of schools and crèches and for sports enthusiasts, there are plenty of clubs to get involved with.
Homes at Harpur Lane, Leixlip, Co Kildare are on the market from €525,000 through Cairn Homes.
