What is being built

Every home comes with parking and a storeroom in the garage below.

  • Two landscaped green areas with walking paths, a children’s play area and an outdoor fitness park

The specification

What comes with every home.

Heating, hot water and air conditioning

Ducted air conditioning heats and cools the living room and the bedrooms, controlled from a thermostat in the main bedroom. Hot water comes from an aerothermal system, which draws heat from the outside air instead of burning gas. The main bathroom has underfloor heating.

Kitchen

Fitted wall and base units under a compact quartz worktop. The extractor hood, glass-ceramic hob, electric oven, microwave, dishwasher and washing machine are included.

Bathrooms

Wall-hung WCs and flat shower trays with fixed safety-glass screens, with Hansgrohe taps. The main bathroom has a thermostatic rain shower and a basin over a two-drawer unit. The second has a wall-hung basin.

Windows, doors and wardrobes

Lacquered aluminium frames with a thermal break, an insulating strip that stops heat passing through the frame, and double glazing. Insulated aluminium roller blinds in the bedrooms, motorised in the main bedroom. An armoured entrance door with a security lock, white fluted internal doors, and white wardrobes lined in fabric with a hanging rail and a shelf.

Floors and ceilings

Porcelain tiles on the floors and non-slip ceramic tiles on the terraces. Plasterboard ceilings throughout, lowered in the bathroom where the air conditioning unit sits. Walls are finished in smooth paint.

Between the homes

The walls between one home and the next are brick and laminated plasterboard with rock wool in between, which keeps sound down. The drainage pipes are the quiet, acoustic type.

The penthouses

Each penthouse has a four-person spa on its terrace, with aromatherapy and coloured underwater lighting.

Power, television and telephone

Television, radio and telephone points in every room except the bathrooms, and a television point on the main terrace. A recessed LED strip lights the bedroom corridor, and the terraces have sockets and wall lights.

Choosing finishes

Buyers can choose from a range of finishes within set dates during the build, and any home can be adapted for reduced mobility.

Buying this as a new build

Building work began in December 2024, so this is bought off plan with the buildings already going up. A €10,000 reservation holds the home, 20% is paid at the private contract, a further 20% during the build and the remaining 60% at the notary. The developer’s specification states that payments made before completion are guaranteed by a bank.

Here my part is to compare the homes on what you actually get for the money, a garden on the ground floor against the height and spa of a penthouse, and to read the bank guarantee before the 20% at contract is paid. I then follow the build through to handover and check the finished home with you.

Get in touch and I will talk you through it. Buying with me sets out how I work.
