Lansdowne Place has once again captured headlines with the record-breaking sale of a Dublin 4 penthouse for nearly €7.2 million — the highest apartment transaction ever recorded in Ireland.
As Jessica Doyle, property correspondent for The Irish Times, astutely stated: “The dial on the barometer of most valuable transactions in the Irish apartment market has advanced to its furthest point yet…”
A New Peak in Dublin’s Exclusive Real Estate Market
The penthouse at 27 The Nicholson has secured its place in history as Ireland’s most valuable apartment sale to date, surpassing the previous high set by another Lansdowne Place penthouse, 24 The Burbidge, which sold for €7 million in 2023. The Nicholson deal was completed in August with a final VAT-inclusive figure of €7,199,999.
This milestone bolsters Lansdowne Place as the defining address in exclusive real estate and underscores the growing appetite for high-end apartments in Dublin 4. It follows a trajectory established earlier this year in Lansdowne Place: Redefining Luxury Living in the Heart of Dublin 4, which explored the development’s rise as Ireland’s premier residential scheme.
World-Class Amenities for Lansdowne Place Penthouse Owners
Occupying the eighth floor, the four-bedroom, study-equipped penthouse spans approximately 353 m² (3,800 sq ft) of interior space and includes expansive roof terraces totaling around 345 m² (3,815 sq ft). The property features walk-through wardrobes, ensuite bathrooms, a study, utility room, and sweeping city views from its open-plan living area.
At a per-square-foot rate of about €1,895, it stands as a defining symbol of value in the luxury apartments segment.
What’s more, Lansdowne Place penthouse owners and their guests enjoy a suite of world-class Residents’ Amenities through the prestigious Residents’ Club, offering a fitness studio, wellness centre, cinema, formal lounge, dining facilities with catering kitchen, and 24-hour concierge services.
Joining a Coveted Community
While the buyer requested to remain anonymous, they now become part of a distinguished circle that includes luminaries such as international music legend Rod Stewart and football icon Roy Keane. This penthouse sale consolidates Lansdowne Place’s draw for discerning individuals seeking both an elevated living experience and a prestigious social milieu—a testament to the scheme’s magnetic appeal in high-worth property circles.
It is these carefully curated lifestyle elements that set Lansdowne Place apart, creating a community atmosphere while ensuring privacy and exclusivity for its distinguished residents.
A Defining Moment for Lansdowne Place
The €7.2 million sale of 27 The Nicholson not only sets a national record but also reinforces Lansdowne Place’s standing as Dublin’s most prestigious address. It is the latest validation of the vision to redefine urban living in Ireland’s capital, offering more than just apartments but a lifestyle unmatched in the market.
With nearly all residences now occupied, Lansdowne Place has firmly established itself as Dublin’s most prestigious residential community. For discerning buyers, one final penthouse remains available, representing the very last opportunity to secure a home within Ireland’s most exclusive residential address.
