Buyers priced out of Dublin are driving up house prices in Kildare.
The average three-bed semi in Kildare now sells for €444,750, an increase of €21,000 in just three months, according to the latest Irish Independent/REA house price index.
Property in Kildare is still cheaper than Dublin, where the average home now costs over €572,000, but prices there have become so high that many first-time buyers are turning to commuter towns.
