FINDING A HOME that matches your budget without compromising your list of must-haves can be tricky, but we’re here to make that task easier.
Each week we round up a selection of homes currently on the market in Ireland around the same price point, giving you a snapshot of what a particular amount could get you.
This week, we’re looking at properties around the country with an asking price of exactly €500,000. Here are a selection of properties to check out…
Coming to the market in turn-key condition, Kilworth Cottage is a period residence. It has been extensively refurbished and renovated, while still maintaining its original charm. The property was built approximately 200 years ago and features exposed natural stone walls, American pitch pine floors and ornate cast iron fireplaces.
Accommodation extends to 3,800 sq ft and briefly comprises an entrance hall, family room, office, sun room, living room, kitchen, three bedrooms and a family bathroom. Velux and sash windows throughout fill the property with natural light. Kilworth village is a short stroll away, while the drive to Fermoy will take about 10 minutes.
If you love the idea of taking an existing structure and revamping the interior to totally suit your needs, then this property in Glasson, outside Athlone, could be one to earmark. It’s currently fitted out with a full restaurant inside, with seating for 62, a high-end kitchen and a separate large dining room. The structure sits on a site of 1.2 acres.
The first floor has previously served as accommodation for the restaurant owners, but is currently mainly used as storage. As the new owner, you’ll have the choice to reconvert the property for residential use, or even start a brand new business venture.
A two-bed detached property, Laurel Cottage was built in the early 1900s. Inside, it has been completely refurbished, although original features remain including its stone and red brick facade, a brick fireplace and a stove. In the open plan kitchen and living area, there’s space to unwind, to entertain and to dine on a private decking area.
The master bedroom features a walk-in-wardrobe and en-suite bathroom, while the second bedroom comes with built-in wardrobes. The family bathroom is fully tiled. Laurel Cottage is within close proximity to several golf clubs and schools, while public transport links provide easy access to the city centre.
If you’re looking for a project and have always dreamed of living by the water, this four-bed house could be the one for you. Standing on 0.6 acres, the impressive residence boasts private access to Lough Gill – and is in need of complete refurbishment. It comes to the market with PVC double glazed windows and oil fired central heating.
Ground floor accommodation briefly comprises a lounge, living room, kitchen/dining room and a bathroom. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms and a family bathroom. Sligo town is a 10-minute drive form the property.
