Green units at a good price
If you're looking for either a modern commercial or residential development that ticks all the boxes in terms of sustainability and affordability, then look no further than the Co Wicklow village of Newcastle.
Rockingham Construction's innovative enclave of multi-functional eco-friendly commercial and residential units are pitched at cash-strapped, environmentally aware buyers (www.rockinghamcentre.com).
Each unit has been installed with heat recovery units which substantially reduce heating costs. All units have a total cost of heating, hot water and lighting of less than €100 per month.
Situated in a courtyard setting, five units in this mixed use development are now on the market at a discounted purchase deal. In a novel solution to the property slowdown, buyers are allowed an interest-free deferred payment of 20pc of the purchase price for five years. This enables purchasers to proceed on the basis of getting an 80pc mortgage facility.
Sole agents are H J Byrne & Co, Main Street, Bray, Tel: (01) 2862113.
