4 of a kind: Homes with saunas to warm you up all winter

Stay toasty at one of these properties, from Wexford to Kildare.

IT’S GETTING CHILLY out there, so we’ve got a surefire way for you to warm up quickly: add sauna to your property search want-list. 

A sauna is an unusual addition to a property, but it would make a welcome addition during the autumn, winter and spring months when it can be hard to take the chill off. Those in Scandinavian countries have long extolled the virtues of saunas, and now you could have your own – right in your own home. 

Whether you move into a home in Kildare, Longford, Dublin or Wexford, you’ll be able to stay warm all winter with your own personal sauna. 

Newbridge, Co Kildare – €475,000

5 Eyrefield Lawns in Athgarvan, in Newbridge, is a large detached bungalow with four bedrooms and three bathrooms – and a sauna. With over 2200 square feet and set on a half acre lot, you’ll have lots of space to relax. The spacious, tiled entrance hall leads into the living space through glass doors that maximise the light throughout the space. The master bedroom has an en suite, and the family bathroom features the sauna, for easy access. 

The home is located close to the amenities of Naas and Newbridge, but benefits from the tranquil setting in the picturesque countryside. Athgarvan is located on the banks of the River Liffey and close to the Curragh Plains, perfect for getting outside for fresh air before returning to warm up in your sauna.
