An abundance of leisure facilities
Irish Independent Property Section, Friday 17th January 2006

Saggart, a picturesque village location where Wicklow, Dublin and Kildare meet, is on the doorstep of Citywest, one of the most vibrant areas in the Dublin environs.

Much development has gone on here in recent years with dramatic re-development in the form of business parks and commercial developments. The Citywest Business Campus itself comprises over 360 acres.

William Neville & Sons, one of the leading residential developers in Ireland, is currently building a €100m development at Saggart and a new phase of 30 3- and 4-bedroom houses and 2- and 3-bedroom apartments and duplexes is now on the market to coincide with the opening of new show units here. Over 150 houses and apartments have been sold to date.

Well designed by architects Anthony Reddy Associates, the development preserves existing parkland and mature trees and also makes a feature of the atmospheric ruin of the Swiftbrook Mill which is on site and will be incorporated into the development.

Features in the units include natural gas fires, radiator central heating, high quality fitted kitchens, external balcony space in many units.

This is a fine site and the layout will preserve the existing parkland and mature trees while also enhancing the environment with an abundance of colourful planting, water features and new landscaping.

There are good transport facilities to and from Saggart. Sports and leisure facilities are available nearby and apart from the fine selection of local shops there is also easy access to Liffey Valley Centre via the M50 and to Tallaght Town Centre.

Saggart itself is a Heritage Village, retaining most of its original characteristics and enjoying an abundance of new, sensitively designed buildings which incorporate retail, medical and other services. It has an intimate feel and for the racing or golf enthusiast the area is a Mecca, with an abundance of facilities, clubs, courses and tracks within easy reach.
