4 of a kind: Bungalows with style, space and charm

Open-plan living at its finest, from a rural Cork home to a Lucan four-bed

THERE’S A LOT TO love with a bungalow. Open-plan, spacious, and great for families or those with mobility issues, bungalows often come with the nice addition of some green space.

This week, we’re taking a look at four different one-storey properties around Ireland, to give you a better sense of what’s out there. Here are some of our favourites on the market right now.
