Donnybrook sits between UCD and the city centre, driving strong postgraduate and professional demand. Housing is largely redbrick and mews, with a smaller apartment stock. Rents are among the highest outside the CBD. A national rent cap applies since March 2026, limiting increases to the lower of 2% or inflation.
Rent may be reviewed once every 12 months. Use the rent increase checker to see whether a proposed increase is within the legal limit.
