About Mountjoy Square
Mountjoy Square is a handsome Georgian square on Dublin’s Northside, in the D01 postcode, just east of Phibsborough and north of O’Connell Street. Centred on a large private residents’ park with elegant red-brick terraces, the area has a distinctive period character while sitting within easy walking distance of the city centre, IFSC and Parnell Square. Living here means having cafés, small shops and everyday services on your doorstep, with Abbey Street and Marlborough Street a short stroll away for wider retail and dining options. The square itself offers a quieter, residential feel compared with nearby arterial routes, yet it remains well connected for commuters. Families benefit from local childcare and after-school provision, while third-level institutions such as TU Dublin Grangegorman are within walking or cycling distance. For green space beyond the square gardens, Diamond Park and other nearby pocket parks provide informal recreation. Overall, Mountjoy Square suits those seeking period architecture and central-city convenience in equal measure.
