4 of a Kind: Terraced homes across the country not to be missed

From Bray to Bandon, here’s what’s on offer.

TERRACED HOMES OFTEN get a reputation for being poky, but that isn’t always true.

They’re often a smart use of space and can be cosy and warm seeing as they obtain heat from houses on both sides. 

This week, we’ve found four terrace houses that are all in great nick and ready to walk into.

Bray, Co Wicklow – €350,000

15 Dargan Street, is a renovated two-bed home with one bathroom. Ideal for first-time buyers, or those seeking to downsize, this property consists of a spacious living/family room and a brand new kitchen/dining room with modern fixtures, fittings, and appliances. Upstairs, there are two generously sized double bedrooms, one with built-in wardrobes and new carpets.

It’s just a stroll away from Bray Main Street with boutique shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs. Families benefit from nearby schools, and nature enthusiasts can explore Bray Seafront and Bray Head. Commuters have easy access to motorways, DART and bus routes.
