This stylish scheme of 114 homes is a mix of apartments, duplexes, townhouses and large homes and will undoubtedly appeal to a wide group of buyers from singles to families trading up to a detached five-bed with a garage.

On an elevated site on the outskirts of the town, Rochford Manor has good views of the surrounding countryside, and is within walking distance of the Knightsbridge golf and country club.

Built around the magnificent castle, Trim is a popular spot with tourists. The town has a good selection of shops, schools, restaurants and facilities, while Navan town is just 12km away and Dublin just 45km. And, with the transfer of the Office of Public Works headquarters to Trim in 2007, the town is set to further develop so demand for residential property is expected to grow.

Similar to their Royal Canal development in Mullingar, Taggart Holdings have created a good mix of homes at Rochford Manor, with nine styles on offer.
