    The price i would say is a little high. But i guess you always pay extra for a new build. Have you driven around the area ? Second hand 3 bed semis houses in dublin 15 in settled areas can be bought from 170 + . Just another option . Also is house freehold or lease hold ? I.e. are there management fees ?

    Waterville is ten years old now and a great location. The different clusters have separate management companies and are thus in diffw states of repair. The resident owners v rented units ratio makes a big difference.

    These three bed houses look great, lots of storage and energy saving devices plus two parking spaces per house.

    They're at 2004 levels now, need another 200k to meet 2007 prices in Waterville

    Did any sell in 2007 is the real question.

    Think better value in more established areas.

    A handful did, I live in one of the older clusters and could not believe 3 bed duplexes were selling at 515k. We had some meetings in the show apartments and there was nothing in them to justify the extra money
