WHILE THE SITE might be on the smaller side, measuring only .22 acres, this architecturally designed property certainly makes the most of its setting that is packed with manicured gardens.

The Corrin is a contemporary four-bedroom, three-bathroom detached property designed by architects Duncan Stewart and Paul Sinnott, and is currently on the market for €1,800,000.

The home features travertine and oak wide board flooring throughout the ground level, a gas fired underfloor heating system on the ground floor and thermostatically controlled radiators on the first floor, as well as central vacuum and air exchange systems.
