    Hi everyone,

    I've just bought a house in Rinuccini estate, just by the Dublin Road. It seems to be a nice estate, with many shops and other amenities close by.

    I was wondering if anyone has any feedback about this area. Is it a nice area to live in does anyone know?

    Best end of town,, looks like a nice place now that it is all finished..
    Electronic gates at back entrance and side entrance, and from what I am told the main one at the front will also have electronic gates.

    It was an eyesore for a long time, all the 5 bed houses were half finished, but it looks nice from the main road now.

    It's fine - Kilminchy nearby has all the basics and a €2 Dublin Coach bus into town centre, once an hour if you don't feel like a walk/drive and taxi too costly.

    You mean a bus coach to Dublin city centre?
