A beautiful place
to live.
The Moorings is a community of 34 homes on the Ballymahon Road in Athlone: a block of 12 apartments with 22 semi-detached houses around it, all set on a lush site dotted with mature deciduous trees and ample shared green spaces, flanked by the Old Rail Trail Greenway.
The Moorings is administered by Athlone Court Management CLG, an owners' management company.

Mature trees, shared green space and tranquil grounds, a short walk from the centre of Athlone, a stone's throw from Athlone train station, and a short hop to the M6 for Dublin and Galway.

Works and Projects
Below is an overview of key improvement projects which have been recently completed or are currently being planned for The Moorings.
The apartment block roof
In September 2026 the entire apartment block received a roof refurbishment: about 300 m² of flat roof and a further 25 m² over the lift shaft were prepared and sealed under a single seamless liquid-applied membrane, finished in dark grey, all with a 25 year warranty.
CompletedBuilding access
Access to the apartment block moved from a mechanical key system to a more secure managed fob system in September 2026. Fobs are issued to residents on record and can be deactivated and reactivated individually.
CompletedFire and chimney safety
The apartment block's fire alarm system is managed under a third party maintenance contract, is serviced to current regulation and is monitored around the clock. Every apartment's chimney and fireplace was inspected under a dedicated annual safety programme, and a fire safety reserve now sits in the annual budget.
Up to dateHouse Rules
House Rules are in force covering the common areas, works within individual homes, refuse, parking, and the procedure for raising a grievance with the owners' management company. The House Rules are reviewed and improved each year.
AdoptedSecure bicycle shelter
A modern, lockable, covered bike shelter for apartment block residents is at tender stage. It will sit on a purpose-laid reinforced concrete base and will be modular, so that capacity can be extended in future if required.
In planningService contracts
Contracts for cleaning, refuse, landscaping, fire alarm maintenance and insurance are reviewed each year for value for money. Contract renewals are reflected in the annual budget, which is presented at the owners' management company's annual general meeting.

Videos of The Moorings
A quiet corner in the heart of Athlone. Only minutes from the town centre, The Moorings sits wrapped in mature trees, and on a spring morning the loudest thing you will hear is the birdsong. Take a short walk with us, from the tree lined avenue to the apartment block and the houses, and choose any stop to go straight to it.
