Ballywaltrim Rent Prices in County Wicklow 2026
Our Verdict
"Bougie"
At a median of €29.25/m², this area is officially BOUGIE and reflects the premium placed on newer housing stock in the Greater Dublin Area. You aren't paying for heritage here; you're paying for modern insulation and a driveway that doesn't require a permit. The investment outlook remains steady because it captures the middle-class squeeze—people who want the Wicklow lifestyle but need to be at their desks in Sandyford by 9:00 AM.
The Vibe:Ballywaltrim serves as a strategic southern anchor for Bray, dominated by car-dependent professionals who prioritize N11 access over seaside proximity. The landscape is a functional mix of established 1970s estates and aggressive new-build density designed for the South Dublin spillover. It lacks the tourist grime of the seafront, trading 'character' for easier parking and a quicker escape toward the Wicklow Mountains.

Locals Ask
Why are the m² stats so high compared to central Bray?
Ballywaltrim has a higher concentration of newer, energy-efficient builds which naturally command the €44.5/m² ceiling.
Is parking an issue for renters here?
Generally no, as most developments in this pocket were built with off-street parking, unlike the cramped Victorian quarters near the DART.
What is the investment outlook for a 3-bed semi-D?
Demand is relentless from families seeking stability, though the high entry price reflected in our 4.0/5 rating limits the yield percentage.
How long is the commute to Dublin city center?
Expect 45-60 minutes on the 145 bus, or a 10-minute drive to the Bray DART station if you can find a spot.
Does the neighborhood analysis justify the BOUGIE rating?
Yes, because the floor for quality is higher here; you won't find many bottom-tier 'bedsits' dragging the average down.
