    As tHE vAGGABOND suggests- www.daft.ie is a good starting point for you. Re: car- if at all possible I would suggest you try to avoid situations where the car is necessary- Dublin is an unmitigated disaster traffic wise, and even if you do find somewhere with parking, often the parking space is let seperately- which can mean a significant additional cost for you.

    Barrow Street is in town on Dart line. Get anywhere on Dart line and as has been said avoid using the car.

    Barrow Street is next to Grand Canal Dock train station.

    Your best bet is either to find somewhere along the DART line, the Maynooth rail line or within walking / cycling distance of work. Bus routes through Ballsbridge are another option.

    Could you live witht he other half and get the Luas to St. Stephen's Green and walk?
