Dublin 1 covers the north inner city, spanning IFSC, North Docklands, Mountjoy Square, and Parnell Street. It has transformed significantly in recent years, becoming a hub for tech, finance, and hospitality workers. With a mix of modern apartments, redbrick terraces, and city-centre conveniences, it consistently attracts strong rental demand.
