4 of a kind: Penthouse apartments with panoramic Dublin views

From a three-storey property in Smithfield to a two-bed in Dublin 4.

A STEP UP (literally) from standard apartment living, penthouses offer extra space, great views, and usually some luxury touches too.

With balconies and terraces, as well as the option to have multiple floors, it’s easy to understand why penthouses remain a popular option for discerning buyers.

Read on to see a selection of penthouses around Ireland’s capital – all with great views of the city and county…

Merrion Rd, Dublin 4 

A three-bed duplex-style penthouse, 92 The Links is an impressive property totalling 1,624 sq ft. Glazed double height ceilings and floor-to-ceiling picture windows flood the property with natural light, as well as allowing residents to enjoy views of Elm Park Golf Club and Dublin Bay. 

Ground floor accommodation briefly comprises an open plan living and dining room, a fully equipped kitchen, two double bedrooms, an en-suite bathroom and a family bathroom. Upstairs, there’s a spacious mezzanine, master bedroom and en-suite bathroom. Number 92 is within walking distance of Sandymount, Ballsbridge and Blackrock, with Dart services from here making the short journey to the city centre a breeze.

Make it yours for €820,000.
