4 of a kind: Houses with games rooms made for entertaining

From a four-bed in Balbriggan to a home with a pool in Co Cork.

IF HOSTING AND entertaining is your forte, you’ve probably dreamed about having a dedicated games room.

This week we’re looking at four properties around the country with games rooms for fun nights in – from a four-bed in Balbriggan to a home with a pool in Co Cork.

Rathmullan, Co Donegal – €299,000

Located within a two-minute walk of the beach and 10 minutes from the heart of Rathmullan village, 3 Woodbrook is an ideal holiday home or peaceful full-time residence. The four-bed property, which sits on 0.8 acres, has been recently modernised and comes to the market in excellent condition.

The garage has been converted into a spacious games room with ample built-in seating and plenty of space for a snooker table. It benefits from direct access to the main house, while a set of double doors open to the front garden.

Balbriggan, Co Dublin – €595,000

A four-bed dormer bungalow, Baros is a modern and spacious family home. It includes a self-contained one-bedroom annex, while outside there’s a detached games room and separate garage.

There’s a built-in bar in the garage, as well as space for a pool table and a seating area. The annex can easily be reincorporated into the main house with the removal of one partition wall, if the new owners would like to extend the accommodation further. Balbriggan town is a 15-minute walk away.
