BUILT BY PARK Developments and Savills, Glencairn Gate is a collection of three, four and five-bed homes with prices starting from €745,000. 

The new development sits proudly on the grounds that once housed Murphystown Castle, which was designed in 1859 by Benjamin Woodward. From castellated towers to granite columns, this site holds plenty of historical significance. It has been the British Ambassador’s residence since 1963 and continues to be the home to Woodland Park, which is open to the public.

These homes are adorned with attractive bathrooms and en suite bathrooms that are extensively tiled and equipped with thermostatically controlled showers. Waterloo Bathrooms provide the top quality sanitary ware, while Brogan Jordan contributes custom made vanity units to the main en suite bathrooms and guest toilets. The attention to detail and masterful craftsmanship elevates the interior to provide the perfect canvas for the new owners to get decorating with their own styles.
