WE ALL HAVE to play our part in looking after the planet, from the running of our homes to our workplaces to our day-to-day lives.
This week we’re looking at four homes around the country with eco-friendly solar panels – from a four-bed in Co Cork to two houses for the price of one in Co Waterford.
One of just 33 detached properties in the Monswood development, No 12 is a highly attractive four-bed family home. Built in 1997, it benefits from many recent modern additions including solar panels and an electric car charger.
Inside, the heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen, living and dining area. Floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors fill the room with natural light, with 500 sq ft of space for dining, cooking, entertaining and unwinding in here. To the rear, there’s a well-appointed patio and lawn area.
Built in 2017, 23 The Close is a modern and inviting three-bed family home. It comes to the market in turn-key condition, with features including built-in display units, ceramic tiled flooring and timeless kitchen units.
The property boasts an A3 Building Energy Rating (BER), with solar panels helping towards lower electricity costs. The rear garden is sizeable and mainly laid in lawn, and benefits from a west-facing orientation.
If you’re not spooked by the prospect of living beside a graveyard, this listing could be worth a place on your radar. The sale includes two detached homes on a site of 0.75 acres on the outskirts of Bunmahon village.
The main property spans 1,604 sq ft and includes three double bedrooms and an impressive living room with a vaulted ceiling. The second property, The Old Schoolhouse, was built in 1853 and has been refurbished to create an open-plan three-bedroom home of 1,216 sq ft.
Coming to the market ready for occupation, 27 Waterside Lawn is an appealing three-bed duplex apartment with solar panels. The ground floor accommodation comprises an open-plan living and dining area, a modern kitchen to the side and a separate living room.
On the first floor, there are three bedrooms, one en suite bathroom and a family bathroom. Three separate balconies mean you can follow the sunshine. No 27 is a 20-minute walk from the centre of Swords, while Malahide village is a 10-minute drive away.
