Height of modernity

CARRAUNTOOHILL meets contemporary in Killarney’s most chic development, which sets a benchmark in terms of quality and finish.

There are spectacular views of Ireland’s highest mountains, the Reeks, from many of the apartments in the new mixed-use development called The Court Yard - a scheme which on the evidence of its first phase will earn its own description as landmark.

David Crowe of Oyster Developments is building 11 penthouse units, 30 apartments (all fully fitted and furnished), six office suites and 11 shop units in a stylised €20 million urban project, which will link Fair Hill and Emmett’s Road, and will include a new L-shaped pedestrian street.
