4 of a kind: High-end bungalows with plenty of added extras

From tennis courts to office space, we take a look at homes with some excellent additions.

EVERYONE LIKES THEIR home to have something extra, be it a home office, a really nice patio area, or something really fancy like a home gym or games room.

This week, we take a look at one-level homes across the country with a little extra something going on.

Glynn, Co Wexford

Located ten minutes from the centre of Wexford town, this property sits on an elevated site, down a gravel driveway.  Spanning 282 sq m/3,042 sq ft, there’s plenty of space for the whole family here.

There’s a lovely cherrywood and granite kitchen, and the extras are fantastic – the property has underfloor heating at ground level, as well as a home office. Upstairs, you’ll find a games room, as well as three bedrooms, one of which has access to an en-suite bathroom.

This property is on sale for €349,000.

Thomastown, Co Kilkenny

The gardens around Willow Lodge Legan have been meticulously designed, and so the house feels at one with nature. There are large windows that take in the best of the garden views, and you can also spot ceiling cornices, and other old world features throughout.

As well as having four bedrooms, one of which has a walk-in wardrobe, the property boasts an office. If needed, this could be converted, but as it is it’s a pleasant nook to get some work done in.

Snap it up for €315,000.
