    Hey all, great to see some of you are getting close! We have bought facing the green in the first phase and getting different dates all the time. Contracts signed and deposit paid but still saying it will be first week of July before we can access. Are you all getting access through DNG?

    We're on the first row (5-10 The bailey ) and we're told mid June as a completion date. Our solicitor is looking for an actual date now so hopefully won't be long. Snag done and waiting to re inspect. Just wanna get floors and alarm in asap.

    Hi johnsob27, we are also facing the green, (back onto the terraces in first row). We are told we will snag week of July 1st week, I'll be standing at the front door ready haha! We haven't pushed for access before then as we aren't sure what point would be. That said, our carpet/floor guy did get into our house to measure for us Monday, he went direct to site foreman. He was very nice filling us in on site progress but his face when I said we should snag July 1st was a bit shocked :-) so I won't hold my breath. Would hate another months delay when end June was our move in date in the sales pitch! Fingers crossed, a lot can happen as some of the earlier houses start to complete I'm sure.

    Gallagher911 Have you been told you can get the floors/alarm done before completing?

    Took this photo last week looking up from Primrose. It's 11-20 the Bailey. Did anyone hear when the road was getting laid? Thought it would have been done by now.

    We went with Phone Watch. They are doing a deal at Bloom for 99 to install and first 2 months free. 12 month contract. I'm sure if you rang them, they would give the deal without having to goto Bloom

    Hey I contacted estate agent about putting in floors and alarm and was told not allowed until sale is complete. I contacted guy who put in alarms in showhouses and waiting to get a quote off him. Have another quote for all windows and doors and two sensors in hallway and landing with a phone app for around €1050. So will see what other man comes back with but I'm happy enough with the other quote

    I asked but not allowed until sale is complete. Would be so handy if we could have them in while we are waiting.

    Has anyone got a dining table for the 3 bed semi yet? What dimensions is it? We've seen one we like but haven't got in to measure the room yet?

    We have the floor plans with all the measuremnets for the 3bed semi. We bought our table based on those. So helpful. I'll find the PDF and post it.

    Dear God did you steal this plan from a vault Oceans 11 style? We asked for similar for Type C house or even room by room basic measurements and were told absolute no, no measurements given!

    Re: snag apparently some of the Bailey row which were to snag next week are pushed back to week of 12th now issue with tarmacing road and esb.

    Anyone fancy going down with a few shovels and pitching in? Say we'd get the road down in a few hours between us all

    Hey guys,

    We have put a deposit on a three bed semi detatched also! Exciting times!! Castlefarm BBQ is a great idea!

    Can I ask how long did it take for your solicitor to get the contract? Relatively quickly or not so much!?

    Thanks a mill!

    Congratulations!

    We got ours fairly quickly, they wanted to see proof of sanction in principle first.

    Congrats! We got ours after about 3 weeks. They just needed proof of funds (loan offer from bank and Help to buy scheme code) before they could send them out to the solicitor.

    Ah good, you're getting close. We are the next row to you(11-20) so I guess we are a few weeks behind. I presume it'll all go quicker once the road is tarmac-ed. Hopefully that happens this week. Currently back living with our parents and have all our stuff in storage. Wish we had a date at least so we can book in deliveries. keep having to delay orders.

    Not sure if the new owner of end of row (No.11) is on here but worth noting that the house is facing a house in Primrose with just 18m between windows. Planning standards say min should be 22m for adequate privacy but Kildare planning seem to have messed up and it wasn't caught in time when plans were submitted originally.
    Nothing some decent net curtains won't solve but maybe worth an engineer's comment on.

    Hopefully it is, would be so handy. Was planning on getting shed wired anyway. Do you know if there is a base being left to put a shed on or is the whole garden seeded?
