4 of a kind: Homes in the countryside with picturesque views

From a three-bed bungalow overlooking Dunmanus Bay to a five-bed in Co Galway.

WITH PANORAMIC VIEWS, relaxing walks and an overall sense of calm, it’s easy to understand the appeal of living in the countryside.

This week we’re looking at four homes in countryside towns and villages around the country – from a three-bed bungalow overlooking Dunmanus Bay to a five-bed in Co Galway.

Kells, Co Meath – €425,000

Located just outside Kells, 11 The Lower Courtyard sits on the historic Headfort Estate. Headfort offers a spectacular place to call home, with seemingly endless acres of country trails and walks on the grounds. The property is located in the south-east corner of the courtyard and features a stylish and elegant interior with three bedrooms, a light-filled sitting room, a kitchen, a dining room and three bathrooms.
