About Ballsbridge

Ballsbridge is Dublin's most prestigious residential district, a leafy, embassy-dense Victorian quarter that has long been the heart of Dublin's old-money and diplomatic communities. The neighborhood is anchored by the US, UK, and major European embassies, the Aviva Stadium, the RDS, and beautifully preserved Victorian and Edwardian terraces along Pembroke Road, Wellington Road, and Shrewsbury Road (Dublin's most expensive street). Residential prices run EUR 7,500-12,500 per square metre, Dublin's highest, with gross yields of 4.0-5.5%. The market is dominated by grand Victorian townhouses (many converted to apartments) and modern luxury developments. Lifestyle is refined and family-focused: walking access to St Stephen's Green, top private schools (St Andrew's, Sandford Park), exceptional restaurants, and the RDS for major events.
