Three dream houses to buy in Castleknock right now

We’ll hold our hands up from the get-go; we couldn’t afford any of these houses even with a lottery win. Still, there’s no harm in window shopping. The houses below are situated in Castleknock; with the Phoenix Park to one side, the M50 to another, and Blanchardstown Shopping Centre just a short drive away. Already home to the Taoiseach Leo Varadkar, social media star Doireann Garrihy and actor Colin Farrell; this pricey part of the capital could be home to you too.

15 Homeleigh, Porterstown, Castleknock, Dublin 15 – €2,250,000

This five-bedroom house at 15 Homeleigh can be easily labelled the most luxurious residential property in Dublin 15. Some notable features include a private indoor swimming pool, an all-weather tennis court, a private bar and games room, a five-seater hot tub, and a four-seater sauna. The entrance hallway includes marble flooring, while a sweeping marble staircase leads to the gallery landing. The large kitchen overlooks the rear garden and comes with all mod-cons; including a Neff American fridge-freezer and a matching integrated dishwasher. The house is fitted with CCTV, electric security gates, and includes a detached double garage.

6 Homeleigh, Porterstown, Castleknock, Dublin 15 – €2,495,000

Just a stone’s throw from the first property, this five-bedroom house at 6 Homeleigh is not to be overlooked. Positioned at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the high-ceilinged home oozes grandeur from every room. Take the elevator or floating staircase up to the bedrooms; all of which include an ensuite and access to a private balcony. There is also an entertainment room, fitted with speakers and recessed lighting; as well as a private bar and home gym. The attic is so spacious it has been divided into two rooms; one can be used for storage and the other is currently being used as a home cinema. What’s more, the house sits an approximately an acre of land and has an excellent B2 BER rating.
