Knockrabo Apartment

Knockrabo is a new residential development with recently completed family homes. The scheme is located in a well established Dublin suburb and will include open spaces, childcare facilities, a gym/library and communal relaxation rooms. Phase 1 which comprises 50 houses is now sold out. Phase 2 which has 69 apartments will be launching in late 2019. Phase 3 was recently granted planning for 57 apartments and 24 houses. The subject site is an attractive new neighbourhood on the lands of the former Knockrabo estate. The proposal contains a range of different housing and apartment types, within a well defined and well designed public realm. The site strategy successfully resolves the many challenges of the site, retaining the specimen mature trees in generous public open spaces, using the protected structures as focal points, creating attractive streets that enjoy views over Dublin while also carefully dealing with the steep gradient, and phasing the project to resolve access requirements to the future Dublin eastern bypass.
