    Anyone have details of new apartments beside St Davids school, great place to live, looking at them today but although a couple are a bit too close to school, few others look great, have looked at sellers site but nothing on it for these apartments, wondering what the prices are like.

    The apartments are called Mariners View and the estate agent is Wicklow Homes, although they dont have anything on their website about them, they on daft.ie for rent. Just curious about price!

    These are bubble level rents. Do these people not realise that we are currently in the biggest recession in the history of the State and rents (like property prices) are falling and falling and falling......

    Tell you whats getting on my nerves at the moment... people on TV referring to the recession as if its over!

    Just cos a few bankers (oops misspelling there) are drinking champers again everything is hunky dory.

    If you actually see them you will really see that the rent is way over the top, they are small, and are so close to the school,
    In a great place though, and really in the centre of things, one thing that would worry me is that the piece of ground at the back of them (facing the sea), would a big house go there eventually and then the apartment would be overshadowed completely.

    Mightn't seem like a great location if you spent a winter down there.

    Actually its lovely down there in the winter. 90% of the weather in Greystones comes from the West and south. Days like last Sunday are actually fairly rare. (and anyway the spectacle makes any window washing well worthwhile!) The other concern- of something being built in front of them -would be much more significant!

    Dont think it matters where you live with the recent weather, convenience would be a huge factor on these apartments, but the land would be my concern too. I would hate to buy and then be completely enclosed and the view would be gone too which would be the selling point I would imagine.

    The land wouldn't be my concern, the sea would. Global warning rising sea levels. The view wouldn't be gone you'd be the view. .
