A LOCATION SO CONVENIENT
Set fronting the L4014 (Ballivor /Kildalkey (Athboy) Road), one mere mile takes you to Ballivors Main Street, while 3 miles in the opposite direction takes you to the village of Kildalkey. Athboy is 6 miles distant while Trim is 9 miles distant. At Crossanstown, one will enjoy the best of both worlds, good country living with village and town convenience nearby.

Ballivor is a popular commuter location within easy reach of Dublin and other principal towns such as Trim, Navan and Maynooth. The village, with its country charm, has a strong community spirit with an active neighbourhood watch. It supports a supermarket, post office, pharmacy, craft butcher, cafe, community centre and a number of convenience stores amongst a greater range of facilities including public houses. Parent/baby mornings, scouts, drama, dance, karate and lots more are provided for here. Importantly there is a state-of-the-art primary school located in the village as well as pre-school, creche and after school facilities. A fabulous new playground has been opened in recent years. Leisure pursuits are in abundance in the area, there being numerous clubs and sporting associations locally which cater for football, hurling, badminton, tennis, athletics, fishing, hunting and shooting but to mention a few. There are also several golf courses nearby while both the River Deel and the Royal Canal with its Greenway, both being only a couple of minutes drive, provide for various activities for water enthusiasts as well as waterside walks. A bus service is provided for post primary schools at the nearby towns of Athboy and Trim, both too supporting further excellent retail, hospitality with hotels and lively pubs and recreational facilities including an Aura swimming pool at Trim.

The county towns of Navan and Mullingar provide hospitals should the need arise and are both within thirty minutes or so drive. With access to the M3, M4, M6, N51 and N52 routes convenient, the area is popular with Dublin commuters and those who transverse the country for work. Employees from the ICT, E-commerce and pharma sectors based around Blanchardstown / Damastown as well as ICTs based around Leixlip often choose Ballivor as a place to call home, citing lifestyle, ease of commuting and affordability as the rationale for their choice. Such companies include giants like Synopsys, IBM, PayPal, Symantec, Ebay, Paypal, Bristol Myers-Squibb, Alexion, Helsinn Birex, Hewlett-Packard, Intel, MSD and Facebook. For those into retail or perhaps after some retail therapy, both the Blanchardstown and Liffey Valley shopping centres are within some forty minutes or so drive.
