These Donabate homes combine coastal living with convenient connectivity
Sponsored By
Inspired by the local landscape, and designed for connection to both nature and the local community, Hampden Hill sets you up for a life well lived.
Set along the Dublin coastline in the beautiful village of Donabate, Hampden Hill is a collection of two, three and four-bedroom contemporary homes within landscaped grounds. Its location balances convenience and the calm of nature, with the shops and cafés of Donabate just minutes away, and Dublin city centre just a 30-minute journey by road or rail. Donabate beach and a 32-acre nature park are also on your doorstep, offering sea views, fresh air, and space to unwind.
These excellent connections are only set to improve, as the DART+ Coastal North project will extend the electrified rail line from Malahide to Donabate and beyond, due to be completed in 2026. This will almost double peak time capacity and increase train frequency between Dublin city centre and Donabate, meaning faster, more frequent, and eco-friendly journeys.
Vibrant charm
Coastal village life with the city on hand is the dream for many, and this is exactly what Donabate offers. With its range of coffee shops, bakeries, supermarkets, sports clubs, and schools, it’s a thriving local community that offers everything you could want. From places to meet friends and catch up, to the nearby Newbridge Estate for family days out, you can create your perfect lifestyle, whatever that looks like.
Close to nature
We’re more aware than ever of the positive effect nature has on our lives, from boosting our mental health, to physiological benefits such as supporting our immune system. Hampden Hill has been designed to make spending time outdoors a natural part of your life, from eight acres of pocket parks, kickabout spaces, playgrounds and exercise stations as part of the development, to the adjacent nature park, not to mention the beautiful Donabate beach just a ten-minute cycle away. The nature park has over a kilometre of landscaped walkways, tree-lined paths, and a cycle path that seamlessly connects to the Broadmeadow Greenway, which, when completed, will link Donabate and Malahide. A dedicated dog park means there’s space for every member of the family. And with Donabate village and train station accessible by foot, you have the freedom to leave the car at home, making it easy to make time spent outdoors part of your everyday.
Space to gather
Not only has Hampden Hill been designed with green spaces in mind, but it has also incorporated outdoor spaces to connect. Outdoor seating areas and ample bike parking will encourage neighbours and friends to gather, while Smyth’s Bridge House, a cherished part of Donabate’s heritage, is set to be reimagined as a vibrant heart of the community. The historic coach houses will be restored to house a grocer, florist, and coffee shop, while the house itself will feature a bar with an outdoor seating area.
Stylish and sustainable
The best part is, the connection to nature doesn’t stop when you enter your front door. Each home at Hampden Hill has been designed to enrich the everyday, from large windows that flood rooms with natural light to spaces designed for indoor-outdoor living. Whether you opt for a house, apartment, or duplex unit, open-plan kitchens, high-spec finishes and a clean, contemporary palette inspired by the colours of the nearby coastline all offer the perfect balance of style and practicality.
You can also move in with peace of mind that all there’s left to do is to put your own stamp on your new home. From seeded gardens with native trees and dividing fences; to bathrooms fitted with high-quality sanitaryware and heated towel rails; quality fitted joinery; and kitchens with quartz worktops and fully integrated appliances, the hard work is already done, ready for life to unfold.
Plus, with BER A2-rated energy efficiency, they are designed to reduce your carbon footprint and create a comfortable, eco-friendly place to call home. And with Cairn’s Customer Care Portal, you can move into your new home with everything from operating manuals to maintenance tips at your fingertips – giving you more time to explore your new neighbourhood.
