Rooms to Rent in Sandyford, Dublin 18

Sandyford is an outer suburb in Dublin 18, in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, about 9 km south of the city centre. The old village sits just south of the M50, around the Sandyford House pub, which has been an inn and coach house since the 1690s, while the much larger Sandyford Business District lies just north of the motorway. Opened in 1977 as the Sandyford Industrial Estate, the district is made up of several business parks, including Sandyford Business Park, Stillorgan Business Park, Central Park and South County Business Park, and it is one of the biggest employment areas in Dublin, with hundreds of companies from tech firms to banks.

Four stops on the Luas Green line, Kilmacud, Stillorgan, Sandyford and Central Park, serve the business district, with direct trams north through Dundrum and Ranelagh to the city centre and south to Cherrywood, and the Green line depot is here too. The area also has apartment developments, the Beacon Hospital and the Irish Management Institute, and Leopardstown Racecourse is next door.

The Dublin Mountains are a short trip south, and the M50 is on the doorstep at junctions 13 and 14. Rooms here range from apartments in the business district to houses around the village, so Sandyford suits people who work in the district or along the Luas line and want a short commute.
