About Ongar
Ongar is a modern, family-oriented suburban neighbourhood in west Dublin’s D15 area, close to Clonsilla and the open countryside around County Meath. The area is largely residential, with apartment developments, established housing estates and a busy village-style centre around Ongar Square. Residents have everyday shops, cafés, takeaways, restaurants and pubs nearby, while larger retail choices are available at Blanchardstown Centre and Blanchardstown Village. Commuters can use nearby Clonsilla and Hansfield railway stations for Dublin city services, supplemented by Dublin Bus routes and road access towards the N3, M50 and Lucan. Local education includes primary and secondary schools in the wider Clonsilla, Hansfield and Blanchardstown area, with Castleknock School of Music providing a nearby specialist music option. Parks, playgrounds and sports facilities are prominent features of the surrounding suburbs, and Phoenix Park, the Royal Canal and Dublin 15’s wider leisure amenities are within practical reach. Ongar suits households seeking contemporary suburban living with good road and rail connections, although peak-time traffic can be busy on the N3 and around Blanchardstown.
