I always hear people moaning about the 43 bus route and it amazes me. I lived in Swords all my life until the last two years and had a choice between getting the 43 or the other Swords bus routes and would pick the 43 every time. I used to get the 7.50 bus in and would be in work in Dublin City for 9 no problem. There was the odd morning that it would be late but generally speaking it was grand...of course it may have gotten worse since I left.
Re Kinsealy/Melrose...they are grand estates and nice houses. They are not part of Drynam which is where I am from although there is a Mount Drinam up there. They are closer to Feltrim but unless they've changed it since I left their address was always Swords.
I personally would prefer to buy in that part of Swords as it's not as built up as the other side of Swords and being from Drynam I would prefer it over here. Have you had a look around the Foxwood area in Swords? It's right beside the Pavillions and you could get either the 41 or 43 into town or the 230 (if it still runs!) over to Malahide and get the Dart in to town.
Best of luck with the house hunting!
