Property Focus: Historic Naas Gasworks on the market

The Gasworks in Naas is on the market for €600,000. This historic property dates back to 1865, when the barges from Dublin delivered coal to the site, which in turn supplied heating and lighting to the town.

This was originally the manager’s house, which was extensively renovated and extended in 1998.

The chimney, which is still in place, offers an attractive feature and a piece of historical interest of a time long past which is an important part of Naas history.
