    Commutable to Blackrock for under 450k

    I think you need to take lifestyle into account too. Dalkey and Blackrock are some of the most expensive parts of the country. If you live there, you will constantly be looking at what others have. You, your wife and your kids will also be mixing with people much wealthier than you and you will...

    Planning permission ending.

    Thanks all, looks like we will be ok to delay until we have the money for finishing. Never build a house, it takes all your money, time, ages you, you fall out with your loved ones and when you move in you are so mentally and physically drained, it takes about a year to decompress!!!!
