Custom House BRent Prices 2026
Our Verdict
"Bougie"
At a median of €24/m², this area is unashamedly BOUGIE and sits at the top of the Waterford pricing pyramid. Our neighborhood analysis suggests you are paying a heavy premium for the Quayside postcode and the convenience of city-center living. While the investment outlook remains strong due to chronic undersupply, the €19-€29/m² range means you aren't finding any bargains here.
The Vibe:This is the sleek, glass-and-stone edge of the Suir where professionals trade suburban space for a view of the Rice Bridge. You are right on the Quays, meaning the wind howls off the water and the R680 traffic is a constant backdrop, but the Viking Triangle is only a short walk away. The crowd here is mostly corporate types who value being five minutes from their O’Connell Street offices over having a backyard.

Locals Ask
What does a 1-bed apartment actually cost here?
Based on current m² stats, a standard 50m² unit will set you back roughly €1,200 monthly.
Is parking typically included in the rent?
Almost never; expect to pay extra for a spot in a nearby garage or spend your life circling for a disc space.
Why is the price range so wide (€19 - €29)?
The top end reflects modern apartments with river views, while the lower end covers older builds on the side streets.
Is the investment outlook good for this district?
It is stable but low-yield on entry because purchase prices are as inflated as the average rent.
Can I walk to the train station from here?
Yes, it’s a 10-minute trek across the Rice Bridge, which is handy for the Dublin commute.
