Dwellings are a leading name in the residential sector who build best-in-class homes where people love to live, work and relax.
Fronted by Jonathan O’Connor and Alan McClearn, Dwellings are passionate about delivering an unrivalled residential offering to their customers. From the greater Dublin commuter belt to other major cities and towns, from the countryside to the coast, they build in locations which people can afford and love. Dwellings homes are energy efficient, light-filled, adaptable and finished to the very highest of standards. The Co. Wicklow-based builders carefully plan green spaces that enhance well-being and quality of life for residents and visitors – where people feel a real sense of community.
With 14 sites strategically located throughout the major regional commuted belts in Ireland, Dwellings are ideally placed to deliver new homes. With no two clients being the same, they aim to offer a wider choice of location, size and type. Whatever home you are looking for, whether that’s a modern apartment, starter home or larger family home, you will find the perfect fit for your lifestyle.
Putting the customer first, Dwellings strives to understand what they want – well-built homes in a pleasant and safe neighbourhood with plenty of amenities and good transport connections. Then they apply that understanding to all their planning and design decisions.
Dwellings identify opportunities in key strategic regional commuter belts which are close to transport nodes and within easy reach of local schools and employment centres. Working from home has become the norm for many. The locations the company chooses will facilitate its homeowners with any of their work priorities.
Dwellings choose their locations, style of homes, construction practices, materials and specifications with great care. When you buy a new home from Dwellings, you can be safe in the knowledge that it is built to the highest standards of design and quality, has low environmental impact and that you will receive a professional, efficient and helpful service. For extra peace of mind, all Dwellings Homes come with a 10-year Global Homes Warranty Structural Guarantee.
Dwellings believe that the quality of their people and the decisions they make are fundamental to their success. The builder has brought together the key skill sets and experience of a number of former McInerney executives alongside the commercial and investment support of Matter Real Estate.
Sustainability is at the forefront of everything Dwellings do. Using the latest green build technologies, their near-zero energy efficient high-quality homes are designed to reduce water and energy consumption, enabling their onsite team, and ultimately their customers, to reduce the impact on the environment.
Dwellings are proud to be a Pollinator Friendly Business, so as part of their commitment to creating a better environment within their developments, they aim to: Plant pollinator-friendly mixes of perennials and flowering shrubs in private gardens; Plant native trees in open spaces and private gardens; Plant mixed bulb drifts of pollinator-friendly plants in open spaces; and retain (or regenerate) native hedgerow habitats.
As part of this commitment, Dwellings have created biodiverse gardens at some of their developments. Beautiful native trees, rich mixed beds of flowering shrubs, grasses, perennials and a bug hotel all combine to attract bees, butterflies and birds – a wonderful environment for your kids to grow up in!
Among Dwellings’ latest developments are Beaulieu Banks in Drogheda, Radharc Flannáin in Mungret, Co. Limerick and Newtown Avenue in Castletroy, Co. Limerick. Beaulieu Banks is an exceptional new development on the leafy Termonfeckin Road on the outskirts of Drogheda. Launched in early 2025, this development will comprise a selection of beautifully-crafted three and four-bed A-rated homes. Their beautifully landscaped green spaces will further enhance the rural setting.
Construction is also underway at Radharc Fhlannáin, a new development of one, two, three and four-bedroom A-rated homes at Slí na Manach in the heart of Mungret. These energy-efficient houses will offer well-thought-out accommodation and a very generous amount of both private and open beautifully landscaped spaces. With four different house types ranging from 50 sq.m – 146 sq.m, they are all constructed to the high standards that homeowners have come to expect from Dwellings.
They will all be beautifully finished by Dwellings’ expert interior design team. A trademark of every Dwellings home, the clever use of space, high-quality materials and excellent finishes – from floor to ceiling – all play a vital part in making these warm, light-filled and generous spaces homes that will be a pleasure to live in.
Like all Dwellings homes, the A2-rated homes at Radharc Fhlannáin are designed to reduce water and energy consumption, and to enable residents to recycle waste.
The first three releases of properties at Newtown Avenue in Castletroy have been a huge success with units usually selling out within minutes. These expectant families were eagerly-awaiting the showhouse opening so they could get a feel for their new homes, allowing them to see room sizes, internal finishes and take measurements.
The event clearly showed the Dwellings team that they have created a development that resonates with the expectations of modern homebuyers, that their homes reflect the growing demand for quality, well-designed homes in Limerick.
Dwellings are always looking for the most talented and innovative people in the business. If you would like to be part of this dynamic and growing team, and have the relevant skill set and experience, please follow them on LinkedIn where any upcoming vacancies will be posted.
