IF YOU’RE LOOKING for more space inside without the hassle of looking after a larger site, a mid-terrace or end-of-terrace house can offer the best of both worlds.

Often far more spacious than they appear from the exterior, terraced houses are a popular choice among city-lovers who don’t want to compromise on square footage. Fancy owning one for yourself? Here’s what’s on offer around the country right now…

Ballincollig, Co Cork – €412,000

This four-bedroom, three-storey property just outside Ballincollig town is a former showhome, immaculately presented both inside and out. The interior-designed home features plenty of eye-catching details, like a solid cherry wood kitchen, a Juliet balcony in the living room and a feature bay window on the first floor.

Accommodation is laid out over all three floors and includes a family room, kitchen/dining area and pantry on the ground floor. Upstairs is a living room, bedroom and en-suite bathroom on the first floor, and finally there are three more generous bedrooms, a main bathroom and one more en-suite bathroom on the second floor.
