PORTLAOISE HAS LONG been known for its blend of small town charm and handy proximity to Dublin city. With a good choice of schools, plenty of sports clubs, café-lined streets, restaurants and even a cinema, it’s the perfect location for everyone from young professionals to growing families. 

Sand Wood is a new collection of homes that’s sure to stand out – not only for its aesthetic but for its great design, sustainability and attention to detail.

Each home has been architecturally designed to complement modern family life and each room will be thoughtfully finished to the highest standards.

The kitchens will have integrated appliances like ovens, dishwashers and fridge-freezers along with quartz countertops and stunning micro-shaker cabinetry.

New homeowners will enjoy oak-effect wood flooring on the ground floor, luxurious carpets in bedrooms and Porcelanosa tiling in bathrooms.

Every bathroom and en suite bathroom will feature Hansgrohe taps and fittings, contemporary porcelain tiles and clever design touches like large mirrors.

Designed with sustainability in mind, Sand Wood homes are all A-rated thanks to air to water pumps for heating and hot water, while the timber-frame construction and top-grade insulation will ensure your home stays warm.

Conversion-ready attics with Velux-style windows, lighting and even data connections will make these homes future-proof and practical for anyone looking to create a home office.

Even from the rendered images, it’s clear that the surrounding development has been well-thought-out in terms of design. Landscape architects have planned beautiful public spaces with over 500 trees planted, natural wildflower gardens and dedicated ecological zones.
