    Tyrrellstown would probably suit as well, not far from the corporate park.

    Yeah, I've seen some pretty cool apartments in Tyrrelstown. The only thing that bothers me about it is that it seems a bit isolated.

    Tyrellstown is a lovely area. Not really that isolated, it's 15 minutes from Blanch shopping centre, it has Lidl, supervalu, diy shop, pet shop, bmi gym, aurora restaurant, medical centre etc. Good bus routes (238 to Shopping centre, 40D and 38C to City Centre most via the business park.

    My mates bird grew up there, (Mulhuddart) some of the stuff she told me was mental. Once saw a skip on fire at 2am in an estate. Only time I've ever seen a skip on fire, I must have been at her house about 10 times max.

    So seems as long as you dont hire a skip you'll be fine, you'll keep away those skip burning savages in Mulhuddart

    What is a skip? :)

    Anyway, I think I'm going to focus on Tyrrelstown.
    Thank you for all the advice :D

    Mulhuddart was a rural village on the very outskirts of Dublin 30 years ago. It wasn't developed enough back then to have a reputation one way or the other. Development of the estates at Huntstown immediately to the south was just beginning but nothing to the North of the village existed then.

    Some of the estates to the North of Mulhuddart have a bad reputation - IMO the best places to live in and around Mulhuddart would be Mulhuddart Wood, Ashfield, Tyrrellstown (really a separate area now) Huntstown, Castlecurragh and Saddlers estate.

    If you run like a Greyhound or happen to jump on a bus the second you arrive at the Bus stop.

    It is a 45 minute walk to the center. It's 15 minutes by car with traffic in mind and roughly the same by bus (but longer when you factor in the waiting time for the bus).

    Sorry for being Anal but Tyrellstown is regarded generally as isolated from the greater Blanchardstown area due to the stretch between it and Mulhuddart village. Again, if you have a car this doesn't apply of course.

    Would agree Mulhuddart Wood estate, Ashfield, Briarwood, Huntstown, Village heights and the Saddlers are nice places to live. Never had any hassle & have nice neighbours who would keep their eye on yr house if ya were away etc. There are 2 developments of lux apts at the 'end' of Mulhuddart - Canturbury Gate and can't rem the name of the other, but they are very quiet too.

    Personally I wouldn't be mad on Tyrellstown, its a bit far out. Or Parnell estates- I know they're new but my friend was stabbed over near that area and she has not been right since, and had to leave a council house over it.

    Just last weekend I had a walk in so called green park along Tolka.. I must say it is a very convinient litter damping facility for those nice people living in the neighbourhood.
    +1 for the area!

    15 minutes in a bus or car, buses aren't that bad in Tyrrelstown. It's isolated from Blanch as a whole but not really from the shopping centre in fairness.
    Most annoying thing is being so far away from train stations :mad:

    Such is the nature of train stations - they cannot pop out in any location.
    But there is a remedy for that - two minibuses would do. It is probably not a sustainable business just for Tyrellstown residential area, but on the other hand, it is an excellent location if the business/industrial parks aroud are taken into account. It is probably too complex from legal/formal point of view. But mini-bus taxi drives could pick up the idea, if supperted by the locals (both businesses and residents), I think
    Some promotion to make it moving.. Do you think people would use such connection? How many are commuting to the city daily and a train could be a good alternative for them?

    It'd be faster to get the 40D to town. The business parks already have private buses organized for people to get to city centre, so they wouldn't need a connection to the train station.

    It's only really like that at rush hour in the evenings, and even at that not every evening.

    Some people see that as a bonus.

    I have not heard anything about it. Funny you should say it but i used to live in Royal Canal Park and over a few weeks huge cracks started appearing in the lobby wall. You could stick your fingers in them.
