That was followed by the south-east with an increase of 21.1% and the midlands at 17%.
The smallest increase outside of Dublin was seen in the mid-west which would include Limerick. In the 12 months studied house prices still grew at 11.7%.
The CSO figures showed the mid-point price of a home bought in the year to April was €286,000.
The Government says prices will stabilise when more supply of houses come on board - but Ministers don't expect that to really have an impact until 2023 - and it could be late 2023.
Ministers have repeatedly said the state is undertaking the largest social housing project in its history.
Yesterday, President Michael D Higgins said housing in Ireland is now longer a crisis, "it's a disaster."
