    Hello,
    We are planning to buy a house in Kildare town but we dont really know much about what areas are good and not so good to live there.
    We are interested in 3 houses in 3 different areas:
    In Curragh Finn, Coolaghknock and Oaktree Tully rd.

    Any if you have any advise in regards of any of the areas?

    TIA

    All good areas, however my preference would be:

    1. Oak tree - 'A' rated houses
    2. Curragh Finn - right beside the train station
    3. Coolaghknock

    Thank you! I have heard that the Chilling Factory smell can go to Oak tree when is windy... :)

    Would you say Curragh finn is a nice/safe area to live? We are leaning towards that one as the house is beautiful, we just dont know too much about the area...

    The smell from there is bad but it very rarely would reach Oaktree as it needs an easterly wind to do that.

    I don't know much about Curragh Finn, maybe another poster can help with that.

    Been in Curragh Finn since they were built, good design and no structural/build/plumb/electrical issues for me. Love living here Very quiet estate during week, weekends and summer kids/folks seems to move about a lot more, quiet re traffic and there's no scope for expsnsion/further development in estate, although across main road will be built upon in years to come. Handy stroll to town, train station and no bother getting onto m7.

    You seem to be happy with the physical house all I'd say is wander in a few different times of day and it will give you a feel for the place then
