4 of a Kind: Luxurious top floor apartments across Dublin city

From a penthouse in Rathfarnham to a duplex in Temple Bar.

APARTMENT LIVING HOLDS great appeal for anyone who wants to stay close to the city centre and it doesn’t always mean saying goodbye to a lot of space. Apartments are also a lower maintenance option if a large house just seems like too much work. 

This week, we’re in Dublin city centre and outskirts to show you four luxurious apartments on the top floor of each complex for extra space and lots of light.

Temple Bar, Dublin 2 – €485,000 

Apartment 23 on quaintly named Pudding Row in Temple Bar is a city centre home with two bedrooms and a floor area of 65 m². No.23 has been recently refurbished by its owner occupiers and comprises two double bedrooms and a private on the first floor with the open plan kitchen, living and dining space on the floor above. There is also a private balcony to the back of the apartment.

With everything the city has on your doorstep, if you work in the city, you’ll more than likely cycle or walk every day and every transport link you can think of will be close by. This is a great option for anyone hoping to use the car a lot less.
