Ballywaltrim Rent Prices in County Wicklow 2026
Our Verdict
"Bougie"
With a median price of €29.25/m², this area has officially hit 'BOUGIE' status, though the aesthetic doesn't always match the price tag. You're paying a premium for the 145 bus route and proximity to the M50, not for leafy avenues or historic architecture. It's a tactical location, but the upper end of €44.5/m² for newer builds is a steep ask for a suburb that still feels like a massive residential transit zone.
The Vibe:Ballywaltrim is the functional, uphill engine room of Bray, stripped of the seaside fluff and replaced with 1970s estates and modern high-density blocks. It sits right on the Southern Cross Road, making it the primary territory for commuters who need the N11 more than they need the beach. The crowd is a mix of multi-generational locals and professionals who have been priced out of Greystones but still want that 'south-of-the-border' status.
The median rent price in Ballywaltrim, County Wicklow is €29.25 per m² per month, 1% above the County Wicklow city average of €29/m². Based on 2 verified rental data points as of February 2026.

Locals Ask
Is the rent hike justified in Ballywaltrim?
Only if you value your sanity on the morning commute; you're paying for the five-minute access to the N11 and the 145 bus line.
What’s the parking situation like?
Older estates like Killarney Lane are fine with driveways, but the newer apartment blocks near the Southern Cross are a tight squeeze for multi-car households.
How far is the Bray DART station?
It's a 30-minute walk or a 10-minute cycle downhill, but coming back up that incline after work is a different story.
Why is the m² stats range so wide here?
The €22/m² figure reflects older, unrenovated semi-detached houses, while the €44.5/m² peak is driven by brand new high-spec apartments.
What is the long-term investment outlook?
Solid, as it serves as a pressure valve for both South Dublin and Greystones demand with zero signs of price cooling.
