A new development of five large detached and semi-detached four and five bedroom house will be launched in Castleknock this week. Brookwood has been built by Barina new homes. It is an attractive cul-de-sac development on Castleknock road, a few hundred metres from Castleknock train station.

The development comprises two four-bed semi-detached houses of 175sq m (1,883sq ft) and three five-bed detached houses of 200sq m (2,152 sq ft), with large attic space. Just five homes are in the development which is surrounded by another housing estate, so it is likely to appeal to buyers from the area.

Agent Hooke and McDonald says the homes will appeal to those looking to downsize as the houses are large but energy-efficient, unlike older houses where energy bills can be higher.
