Each home has three bedrooms, en-suite master, family bathroom, guest WC, kitchen cum dining room, living room, front patio area and private rear garden.

Built by Kildare-based Castle Homes and designed by architect Damian O'Flynn & Associates, Newbridge, there are many added extras included in the price.

For the tech-savvy each home will also be fully kitted out with integrated sound system and full interconnectivity for phone and broadband.

A private parking space is allocated to each property and is accessed by electric security gates. The icing on the cake for this development has to be the private roof garden on each house.
