We moved to Newbridge so that we would be near the Kildare Steiner School and I could still travel to work in a timely fashion by train (to Heuston station in approximately 23 minutes) with a short walk (for exercise) or jump on a frequent bus service (if lazy or just if it was too wet).

The house we choose to buy in 2010 was a bungalow on one third of an acre in the town close to all services. The site was the thing like most people that really appealed to us. We always wanted to build our own house and we felt that the site and location were perfect  to plan a self build.
