What decides the price in Kilkenny
The same things as anywhere: how wide the wall is, sliding or hinged doors, the door finish and how much of the inside is drawers. The county barely moves it. What does change from house to house in Kilkenny is the room itself, and that is what the numbers below are about.
Homes in Kilkenny, in numbers
From the CSO's Census 2022 and its count of new homes finished in 2025. The shares are our arithmetic.

What that means for your wardrobe
- More bedrooms to fit. 38.6% of homes in Kilkenny have four or more bedrooms, against 33.4% across Ireland. A main bedroom and two smaller rooms is a different job from one wall: ask for every room on the one quote, measured on the one visit.
- New homes. 521 new homes were finished in Kilkenny in 2025. In a new house, measure once the floor is down: the wardrobe stands on the finished floor, and the skirting and sockets decide where it starts. Sizes and measuring.
- Older houses. 17.1% of Kilkenny homes were built before 1946. Older bedrooms often have a chimney breast with an alcove either side, and walls that aren't true. Measure each alcove at three heights: they're rarely the same width. Bespoke wardrobes.
- Detached houses. 59% of homes in Kilkenny are detached, against 41% nationally. Bigger bedrooms mean longer walls: a 3 m run of hinged doors is about €2,783 to €3,083, and many one-off houses have a room in the roof that suits an attic wardrobe.
- 2000s houses. 27% of Kilkenny homes were built between 2001 and 2010, so their original wardrobes are now 15 to 25 years old. Replacing one is a common job: taking out and taking away the old wardrobe is usually €150 to €300.
