It has now been bought by Priory Ccl Limited, a company that has close ties to the Care Concern Group, a major British operator of nursing homes.

According to Independent.ie: The house where teenager Ana Kriégel was murdered has been sold for €4m to a company closely linked to a UK firm that specialises in developing and running luxury nursing homes.

Glenwood House, a derelict, listed property on more than 100 acres of land in west Dublin, was the scene of the murder in May 2018.

It has now been bought by Priory Ccl Limited, a company set up in late 2021 that has close ties to the Care Concern Group, a major British operator of nursing homes.

Although the sale price is listed on the property price register at €1m, a spokeswoman for the new purchaser told Independent.ie the price had been €4m. She said their plan was to build a “best-in-class nursing and dementia home” on the site, which is located on the Clonee Road near Lucan in Dublin.

The purchase price of €4m is significantly below the €10.5m that was reported to have been paid for the site by its previous owners in 2003.

The site will be forever linked to the murder of Leixlip 14-year-old Ana Kriégel, who was lured to the property by two boys aged just 13.

Boy A and Boy B, as they came to be known, were convicted of her murder

Boy A was sentenced to life imprisonment and Boy B given a 15-year sentence.

Both boys are to be held at Oberstown Detention Centre until they are 18, at which point they were to be transferred to an adult prison.
