Locals Ask
Is street parking impossible on match days?
Yes, when the Aviva or RDS are hosting, the entire neighborhood becomes a no-go zone for cars unless you have a private driveway.
Does anyone actually pay the €57.5/m² top-end rate?
Multi-national corporations leasing for C-suite executives pay it without blinking, which keeps the floor high for everyone else.
Where is the best place for a run that isn't a treadmill?
Herbert Park is the gold standard, offering a 1.5km perimeter loop that is the primary social hub for the local athletic set.
How long is the commute to Silicon Docks?
It is a 15-minute walk or a 5-minute DART spin, making it the most efficient base for high-earners in tech.
Are there any 'normal' grocery stores nearby?
Most residents drive five minutes to the Tesco in Merrion Centre to avoid the high markups at the local boutique delis.
