Neighbourhood and lifestyle
Rathfarnham sits at the foot of the Dublin Mountains, with Marlay Park, Rathfarnham Castle and the River Dodder giving it a green, village feel. Dublin Bus services run to the city centre, and the Luas green line is accessible at nearby Dundrum and Balally. Shopping at Dundrum Town Centre is a short drive away.
Buyers are mostly families who want schools, space and a south-side address, plus downsizers. It falls partly into the Dublin 14 and 16 postcodes, which are sought after for their schools.
Buying in Ireland as a foreigner
There are no restrictions on non-residents buying Irish property. The process runs through a solicitor, with contracts exchanged after the sale is agreed. Stamp duty is 1% of the price up to €1 million and 2% from €1m to €1.5m and 6% above €1.5m. Annual Local Property Tax is based on valuation bands. Irish banks lend to non-residents rarely, so many buyers use cash or lending from another country.
