Seven properties in Greystones to look at if you’re a first time buyer

Brian Dillon

As part of our AIB Livin Dublin series, we have been guiding first-time buyers through the whole home-buying process. From hosting informative and insightful events to exploring your options in different areas of the city, we have been dedicated to guiding you through the steps and letting you know what’s out there.

And now, we’re expanding beyond the limits of the city. This time, we’re shining the spotlight on the incredible area of Greystones in County Wicklow, which is under an hour’s drive to Dublin City Centre or just around an hour on the DART.

We’ve decided to showcase seven properties in Greystones that are available to those looking to get onto the property ladder.
