The pride of Priory Road…

ress release from The Land Development Agency, issued on Friday, November 25th 2022…

The Land Development Agency has launched its first cost rental offering to the market in Archers Wood, Delgany, Co. Wicklow in partnership with Cairn Homes.

In total, 142 homes in this north Wicklow location will be open for application, with 48 two and three-bedroom duplexes in the first phase and 94 one-bed apartments to follow in phase two in early 2023.

Archers Wood sits on an elevated site with uninterrupted views of the Irish Sea to the east and the Sugar Loaf and Wicklow Mountains to the west. Archers Wood is just outside the scenic village of Delgany, a welcoming place which has many day-to-day conveniences while retaining its quaint charm.

There are no less than seven primary schools in the area as well as four secondary schools including Temple Carrig, Saint David’s Holy Faith and SEK International School. There are soccer, rugby, GAA, tennis, swimming, badminton and athletics clubs within the surrounding area, as well as numerous gyms and an incredible selection of golf courses at Druid’s Glen, Greystones and Delgany. You can also take advantage of the nautical location and go sea swimming or sailing.

If you are commuting to work or popping into Dublin, Archers Wood is extremely well connected to the capital. It’s minutes from Greystones station which is serviced by both Dart and fast Intercity trains. The 84 and 184 bus routes serving Greystones, Bray and Blackrock stop right beside the development.

Within the development there will be a high quality playground in addition to tennis and basketball courts and a community sports field on the northern edge of the development, as well as a parkland with wildflower meadows and woodland copses.

The homes at Archers Wood are exceptionally well designed and boast an A2 energy rating to help keep you cosy and save on those energy bills. The properties at Archers Wood are generously designed and highly adaptable. They are ideally suited for working from home now and future-proofed (where applicable) for the future.

The modern, light-filled kitchens are fitted with bespoke, ergonomic units and appliances. The well-appointed bedrooms are relaxing, calm spaces that are designed for sleeping soundly and living comfortably. There is lots of clever built-in storage to minimise clutter and all the fixtures and fittings are finished to the highest of standards.

The cost rental model seeks to decouple rent levels from the market and instead charge rents that cover the costs of constructing and maintaining the homes, with rent increases linked to the rate of inflation, thereby providing tenants with a predictable and typically lower level of rent. The fact that costs of delivery and operation are covered also supports the sustainability and scalability of cost rental over the long term.
