    We're looking at St. Edmund's Park and have done a couple of visits - seems nice. Did the drug treatment clinic go ahead? Anyone living in the area recommend it? Are there good schools?

    Hi - any updates on St Edmunds?! We viewed one of the houses there last night and loved it.

    One of the flatmates would have to walk to and from the bus stop at Hermitage Golf Club - is this walk safe??

    Why do they have to walk that far? Would they not be better walking to the stops by Liffey Valley? Much shorter distance.

    Hi,

    I am looking at buying an apartment in the estate but a girl in work told me today that her sister is in the houses and that they are having pyrite issues.Is this the same with the apartments?

    There was pyrite issues in some of the developments in St. Eds- but its my understanding that remedial works were undertaken and the units fully sorted. You should confirm this with the vendor and the Management Company first of all though. You should also mention it to the engineer doing your survey.

    hi

    From speaking to the girl in work, it was only something that has been found out recently about the houses. I didnt think there was any work done to fix it, but i could be wrong but I can try and find out this tomoro. I am intrested in an apartment but dont know if it would affect those to.

    Most of the recent apartment rentals were on very short leases- as work was supposed to start on the 31st. No idea how long it was to take. You need to clarify this with the Management Company.

    Interesting, as looked at a house and apartment there also. Conductor can I ask your sources or how do you know? If you dont mind. Thanks

    I wonder if only short term rental was given because there were 160 apartments for sale by Hooke & McDonald in Sept 2016? They probably wanted to sell with short leases only?

    If there is pyrite in the houses, does that mean it's the same for the apartments? They seem nice with high spec.

    @theconductor was it only rumoured that work was to begin, or is that true?
