The Step Inn, Enniskerry Road,
Property Overview
- Location
The Step Inn is centrally located in the heart of Stepaside Village, a thriving suburb in South Dublin, nestled at the foot of the Three Rock Mountain. It is situated approximately 12.5 km south of Dublin City Centre, 11.6 km southwest of Dun Laoghaire, and 11.4 km northwest of Bray.
Over the past decade, Stepaside has experienced significant growth, transitioning from a traditional village to a bustling suburban area. The development of new residential housing estates and village apartments has greatly increased the local population. The area is further enriched by its proximity to established suburbs such as Dundrum, Sandyford, Stillorgan, Leopardstown, Foxrock, Carrickmines, and Kilternan.
This rapid residential expansion, coupled with Stepaside’s close proximity to Dublin City Centre, has solidified its reputation as a desirable residential district in South County Dublin. Adding to its appeal is the nearby Cherrywood, South Dublin’s most rapidly developing district. Covering a 360-hectare Strategic Development Zone (SDZ), Cherrywood will feature over 8,700 residential units due for completion by 2028. The Step Inn, located just 9 km from Cherrywood, stands out as a key destination, especially since Cherrywood currently has no licensed premises within its immediate vicinity.
The area is well-connected by public transportation, with several frequent bus routes and the nearby LUAS Green Line stop at Ballyogan, offering direct access to the southeastern suburbs and Dublin City Centre. Additionally, the district benefits from its proximity to the M50 Motorway, which provides convenient access to Dublin Airport, as well as northern, western, and southern Dublin, and other parts of the country.
Stepaside also boasts a variety of local attractions, including the Stepaside Public Golf Course, the Stepaside Driving Range and Pitch & Putt course, and the Ski Club Ireland facilities at Kilternan. The Samuel Beckett Civic Campus in Ballyogan has further enhanced the area, offering numerous community and sporting amenities, such as a multi-sport facility, gymnasium, swimming pool, skate park, and games pitches.
