CONSERVATORIES SUNROOMS AND floor-to-ceiling windows are a smart way to brighten up a home, and let in as much outdoor light as possible.
They’re a common feature of extensions, but many newer homes now come with one of the above as standard too.
So what’s on the market, if a conservatory is top of your list? This week, we’ve rounded up four light-filled homes, with prices ranging from €380,000 right up to €6,000,000.
On the market for €6m, The Bawn is a period residence with seven bedrooms and six bathrooms. Located in the heart of old Foxrock, the property sits on 1.5 acres and covers a generous 5,600 sq ft. Throughout, The Bawn is rich in period detail with elaborate plaster work, mahogany panelling and an ornate glass dome. At the front of the house, a spacious conservatory grabs attention.
Privacy is the name of the game at The Bawn, with a sweeping driveway providing access and cultivated gardens surrounding the residence. Foxrock village and all of its amenities is but a short stroll away, while there are also several schools and sports facilities within close proximity.
A five-bedroom semi-detached home, 24 Clontarf Road is on the market for €985,000. Upon entering the property, a bright and spacious living room complete with bay window sits to the left, with a large garage to the right. At the rear of the property is a generous conservatory, leading way to the kitchen. Upstairs, there are five double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The location of Number 24 is second-to-none, with Clontarf’s seafront as your view. Clontarf DART station and St Anne’s Park are within walking distance, as well as multiple restaurants, bars, schools and sports facilities. Connolly Station can be reached by foot within half an hour – or several nearby buses provide services to the city centre if you don’t fancy walking.
Located in Stradbally East, this five-bedroom home has been recently renovated externally with an eye-catching exposed brick feature. The property is filled with light throughout thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows, Velux windows and a large conservatory. One bedroom and en-suite bathroom is on the ground floor, while the remaining four bedrooms and two en-suite bathrooms are upstairs.
The property itself sits on half an acre, although there is the option to purchase a further 11.5 acres with stables and large floodlit equestrian sand arena for €125,000. The village of Clarinbridge is just a short drive away, while Eyre Square can be reached within half an hour.
Set on 1.58 acres of private grounds and spreading over 2,400 sq ft, space is no issue at Eirí Na Greíne. The light-filled property features four bedrooms and six bathrooms, as well as a detached garage and office. Throughout the home, there are stunning views of Benbulben and Knocknarea – particularly in the sitting room, master bedroom and conservatory.
Each bedroom features solid wood flooring and an en-suite bathroom with a shower. For those who love nothing more than a long soak in the bath, the family bathrooms boasts a corner jacuzzi. On the first floor of the detached garage is a home office, complete with wired alarm and Velux windows. The beaches of Aughris, Dunmoran and Tra Bhui are nearby, while Sligo city centre is a 30 minute drive away.
It’s on the market for €380,000.
