What it means for a kitchen in Dún Laoghaire

  • A Victorian terrace in Sandycove and a 1950s house in Sallynoggin need different kitchens. If an older house is a protected structure, check which works are exempt before you plan an extension.
  • 18% of homes were built since 2011, and kitchens that young usually need new doors or a worktop at most.
  • 25% of households have four or more bedrooms, close to the 31% in Dublin 15.
  • Dún Laoghaire is in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, so planning applications go to that council. The national 45 m² rear exemption applies.
