Dublin 24 living: parks, value and easy city access
Dublin 24 covers Tallaght, Firhouse, Templeogue edges and parts of Rathfarnham’s hinterland—an area that mixes established estates with newer schemes, big green space and strong everyday amenities. It suits buyers who want more house for their money than the inner city, while keeping solid links to town and the wider county. Expect a practical, community-led feel, plenty of sport, and handy shopping for the weekly shop.
Day-to-day life in Dublin 24 is built around convenience: The Square Tallaght is the major retail hub, with supermarkets, services and a busy food court, while Tallaght Village has pubs, cafés and a more local pace. For outdoors, you’ve got Tymon Park on the doorstep and the Dodder Greenway paths nearby for walks and cycles. Community sport is big—GAA, soccer and leisure facilities are well used—making the area feel lived-in and family-friendly rather than flashy.
Transport is a key draw: the Luas Red Line serves Tallaght and brings you through to the city centre, with Tallaght Hospital and TU Dublin Tallaght Campus adding commuter footfall. Drivers have quick access to the M50 for Dublin Airport, Sandyford and the wider commuter belt. Bus corridors connect Tallaght, Firhouse and Templeogue towards town. School choice is broad, with well-known options including St Mac Dara’s Community College (Templeogue) and Firhouse Community College, plus a strong mix of primary schools across the district.
With just 2 properties currently advertised from €300,000 to €300,000 (average €300,000), Dublin 24 is presenting as a value-led market—often attractive to first-time buyers trading space for a slightly longer commute. Demand is supported by major local employers and institutions such as Tallaght University Hospital and TU Dublin, alongside steady rental need within a designated RPZ where increases are capped. Expect pricing to track wider Dublin trends, with good competition for well-presented, turnkey homes near Luas stops.
