4 of a kind: Character-filled homes with mature gardens

From a five-bed in Co Waterford to a light-filled home in Co Clare.

THIS PAST YEAR has taught us many things, including the importance of having a nice outdoor space close to home. 

This week we’re looking at four properties around the country with their own mature gardens, from a five-bed in Co Waterford to a light-filled home in Co Clare. 

Swords, Co Dublin – €400,000

Located just off Main Street in Swords, Co Dublin, 1 The Old Vicarage dates back to the 17th century. Surrounded by mature communal gardens, the former vicarage has been converted into a private terrace, with No 1 covering 1,400 sq ft of this building. The two-bed property features an elegant interior with open fireplaces, high ceilings and south-facing windows.
