Explore these energy-efficient and modern homes in the "Venice of Ireland"
Ferns Walk is made up of two, three and four-bed homes.
IT’S NOT JUST the counties in Ireland that get nicknames that stick. The many towns and villages also get names that sprout from certain features that make them unique. One such is the Kildare town of Monasterevin.
The town is often called the “Venice of Ireland” due to its many waterways, including the River Barrow and the Grand Canal that flow through it. While its official name dates back to the 6th-century monastery of St. Evin, referring to it as the “Venice of Ireland” definitely adds a certain je ne sais quoi.
Nestled in this charming town is Ferns Walk, a new development that’s a blend of contemporary living, energy efficiency and community spirit. This newly launched phase of follows the success of phase one, offering a limited selection of two, three and four-bed homes designed with modern lifestyles in mind.
Built with both comfort and conscience at their core, each home at Ferns Walk has an impressive A2 BER. High-performance insulation, concrete block construction and energy-efficient double glazing ensure each property is not only beautifully finished but built to last. An eco-friendly air-to-water heat pump system provides efficient heating and hot water, complemented by underfloor heating on the ground floor – a welcome touch of luxury during the colder months.
The development offers a range of layouts, from two-bed mid-terrace homes to spacious four-bed semi-detached and detached homes with three-beds in between. Some homes even include attic spaces that can be converted, offering plenty of options for bigger families or remote work.
Ferns Walk is designed with everyday living in mind — private back gardens with solid block boundary walls offer secure outdoor space for families, while every property is covered by a 10-Year HomeBond Structural Warranty for extra peace of mind.
Set against the backdrop of Monasterevin’s rich history, Ferns Walk balances tranquil surroundings with connection. The town’s growing appeal lies in its ability to offer a quieter pace of life, while still maintaining easy access to Dublin and the wider region — making it an ideal location for commuters, first-time buyers and families looking to settle in a vibrant and welcoming community.
With stylish architecture, a strong focus on sustainability and a setting that blends rural living with convenience, Ferns Walk represents a fresh standard of living in a town with one of the most continental of nicknames.
