4 of a kind: Terraced homes with plenty of space inside
From quiet cul-de-sac living in Swords to a period property painted pink in Cork.
USUALLY BUILT IN close proximity to a bustling town or village and often with room to expand to the rear, there are many pros to buying a terraced home in Ireland today.
When you consider the energy savings due to less heat loss, plus the greater sense of community, a terraced house becomes a very appealing option for a modern buyer.
This week, we’ve rounded up four homes that fit the bill perfectly, but that don’t scrimp on space. Read on to see what’s on the market right now…
Swords, Co Dublin
Just minutes from an Educate Together school, a creche and close to Swords village, this brilliantly located terraced property in north Co Dublin would make an ideal starter home for a young family.
Inside, the ground floor is made up of a guest WC, a living room and a kitchen that has access to a spacious and fenced rear garden. Upstairs, two bedrooms, one with en suite bathroom, along with a family bathroom ensures the space is used wisely.
Stillorgan, Co Dublin
With an impressive four bedrooms, this terraced home is much larger than you think from the outset. Greeted by a pristine tiled hallway, you’re lead to a bright open plan kitchen and living area with views of the large south facing rear garden with its spacious studio that could be converted in to a den, playroom or even a home office.
Newly refurbished and extended, 53 Beaufield Park is just minutes from the Luas, bus routes, ample schools and Stillorgan Shopping Centre, providing new homeowners with a real sense of community, just outside the capital.
Rathfarnham, Dublin 16
Making use of the natural light whenever and where ever possible, this terraced three-bed home, on Scholarstown Road, has the luxury of a beautiful back garden that’s accessed from the bright and spacious open plan layout within. Inside, a kitchen by Kube, floor to ceiling windows and plenty of storage make it a perfect roomy home for growing families.
Situated in close proximity to the M50, every south Dublin area is within easy reach and Dublin city centre and airport are both just short drives away.
Glanmire, Co Cork
This home’s striking facade highlights fun and luxurious living all in one. Built in the early 19th century, original period details and panoramic views over the River Lee, no doubt makes this an attractive property that’s less than a ten minute drive to Cork city.
Three bedrooms and two bathrooms, along with a kitchen, separate dining room and a living room all embrace the stucco work and restored door frames and sash windows that hark back to the Georgian era.
