About Kilternan
Kilternan is a semi-rural village and residential locality in south County Dublin, within the D18 area and close to the Dublin Mountains. It sits between Carrickmines, Stepaside, Glencullen and Rathmichael, with Enniskerry and Cherrywood also nearby, giving the area a countryside feel while remaining connected to the city’s southern suburbs. Homes are typically spread through established estates, one-off houses and equestrian properties, and the setting is particularly appealing to families and people seeking open space. The locality has a limited village-centre retail offering, so residents commonly use Stepaside, Carrickmines, Dundrum and Sandyford for supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, banking and everyday services. Pubs and dining options are available in the surrounding villages and suburban centres, while the nearby Dublin Mountains provide extensive walking, cycling and outdoor recreation. Education locally includes The Old Schoolhouse, with further primary and secondary choices generally found in neighbouring Stepaside, Sandyford, Carrickmines and south Dublin. Public transport is more limited than in the city suburbs, with bus services and nearby Luas Green Line access serving commuters; the map-listed Green, Blue, Red and Black Stations should be treated as nearby mapped transport points rather than conventional rail stations. Kilternan is also strongly associated with equestrian activity, including Carrickmines Equestrian Centre and Springfield Stud Farm, and benefits from access to clubs, sports grounds and amenities across south Dublin.
