THERE’S NO BETTER time than bleak and cold January to start a property search for a home with underfloor heating.
It’s one of the most enjoyable modern conveniences – to climb out of bed and set your feet on a warm floor, or pad around the kitchen in your bare feet. And luckily, underfloor heating typically comes with the added benefit of energy efficiency, using less energy than traditional radiators.
If you’re starting your property search, it might be time to add underfloor heating to your want list. Here are four homes around the country that will keep your toes cosy throughout the year.
In Barna, Co Galway, you’ll find a five-bedroom detached home set on 0.4 acres, only five minutes walking from Barna Village. The ground floor enjoys underfloor heating, and the home benefits from high ceilings, exposed wooden beams and a floor-to-ceiling granite fireplace in the living room.
The home has five bathrooms; four of the bedrooms are en suite. Three of those bedrooms are located on the ground floor, which means quite a few people will get to benefit from that underfloor heating upon waking up each morning. Outside, the gardens are expansive and mature, offering tranquility with the convenience of village life.
In Co Kerry, there’s a four-bedroom, four-bathroom detached home on an acre of land that you could move into before winter is over. The house measures 2,292 sq ft and features underfloor heating, as well as a double-sided wood-burning stove between the kitchen and living room, keeping you warm from many directions. The double doors in the kitchen lead to a paved stone patio.
Outside, there is a detached garage with a double and single entrance, allowing for optimal storage and parking. There is external lighting, as well as an electric gated entrance.
In Letterkenny, you could scoop up a five bedroom, three bathroom detached new build home. The property has an A energy rating, with triple glazed windows, underfloor heating, and an air-to-water heating system for hot water, so you’ll never have to suffer through a cold shower.
Just five minutes outside Letterkenny itself, the home has a tarmac drive and manicured lawns at the front. There is a detached garage to the back of the property as well. The fenced garden at the front means you can take advantage of the green space in both front and back of the house.
Finally, in Dungarvan, Co Waterford, you’ll find a four-bedroom, two-bathroom detached new build with over 2,000 sq ft of space. The home is part of a small new development of only six homes that includes detached and semi-detached homes. Inside, the home has a specialty-designed kitchen, light-filled living spaces and high quality fixtures in the bathrooms.
Located just off the main N25 Cork-Waterford route and close to both the Waterford Greenway and Clonea Blue Flag beach, you’ll enjoy a convenient location as well as an intimate and quiet neighbourhood.
