The property's realtors say: “Holyrood Castle is a most distinctive 19th-century four-story over basement castellated residence, tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac off Sandymount Avenue making it an outstanding investment opportunity, stunning home or home and income.”
The Castle is currently divided into three "spacious and elegant apartments" that include a 3-bedroom basement apartment, a 2-bedroom ground floor apartment, and a "dramatic triplex penthouse" with a rooftop garden that boasts a "unique and creative bespoke interior where no expense has been spared."
The private rooftop garden offers 360-degree views over Dublin city, the mountains, and sea.

One writer for the Irish Times aptly describes Holyrood Castle as a “noughties pleasure dome” that “appears to have been designed entirely with entertainment in mind.”

Speaking of the Castle’s penthouse, she writes: “A dramatic spiral staircase rises from here to a top-floor Jacuzzi room whose mosaic-tiled ceiling includes 14-carat gold-leaf detail; this leads out to a vast AstroTurf-clad rooftop garden complete with AstroTurf-covered gazebo, classical statuary and uninterrupted views across the YMCA playing fields next door."
