Affordable Housing in North County Dublin

Fingal County Council is making 16 homes available for sale throughout North County Dublin under Affordable Housing Purchase Arrangements. 

The online application portal is now closed.

The homes available for purchase are located in the following Developments: Millers Glen, Swords (6 houses); Mooretown, Swords (2 houses); Station Road, Lusk (3 houses); The Paddocks, Donabate (3 houses); and College Avenue, Belcamp (2 houses).

Further information on the North County Homes being offered for purchase can be viewed here.

These homes will be available at a reduced price for buyers who are seeking to purchase a newly built home but need to bridge the gap between their mortgage and deposit to cover the full price of the home.

It should be noted that the Minimum Sale Price set by Fingal County Council is already a reduction from the Open Market Value of the home.  Those interested in purchasing a home in this Scheme must be able to demonstrate that they can afford to pay the Minimum Sale Price set.
