4 of a kind: Compact one-bed apartments with inviting interiors
From a modern property in Sandyford to a stylish home in Cobh.
APARTMENT LIVING CAN offer many benefits, from low levels of upkeep and maintenance to a central location.
This week, we’re looking at one-bed apartments around the country – from a modern property in Sandyford to a stylish home in Cobh.
Sandyford, Dublin 18 – €260,000
Located in the heart of the Beacon South Quarter, this one-bed apartment is a stone’s throw away from a number of shops, cafes and amenities, as well as the Stillorgan Green Line Luas stop. With a number of Dublin Bus routes also running nearby, it’ll be easy to leave the car in its underground parking space.
The sixth-floor property comes to the market in walk-in condition, with floor-to-ceiling windows in the living area and bedroom flooding the space with light. The high-gloss kitchen is modern and stylish, while the bathroom is finished with marble tiles. There’s timber flooring throughout the apartment, as well as built-in wardrobes in the bedroom.
Dungarvan, Co Waterford – €99,500
A ground floor apartment, 15 Cruachan is a spacious property with its own private terrace. The sale includes multiple furnishings, including kitchen appliances, a sofa bed, the kitchen table and chairs and built-in floating wall units. A rarity for many apartments, the kitchen and living area leads to a small garden with a stone surface and timber shed.
There’s a large bathroom, complete with a separate bath and walk-in shower, which can be accessed via the hall and the bedroom. The property is a 25-minute walk (or a five-minute drive) to Dungarvan town centre, with multiple shops, restaurants and bars here.
Cobh, Co Cork – €195,000
A private complex, Cultra House is a Victorian residence which was built in 1847 and divided into eight modern apartments in 2005. This second-floor apartment features a charming and inviting interior, with a feature red brick wall in the living area, duck egg blue cabinets in the kitchen, solid timber flooring and views of the beautiful communal gardens and the sea.
The property spans 592 sq ft, while high ceilings add to the feeling of spaciousness. In the bedroom, there are sleek black wardrobes with plenty of storage space, while wall panelling adds a stylish feel. Located along the Cork coastline, the apartment is a stone’s throw away from the seaside, with Cobh town centre just a 15-minute walk away.
Greystones, Co Wicklow – €225,000
A bright and airy apartment, 26 Seabourne View is located just a short stroll from the coast. The property benefits from a large west-facing balcony off the living area, with views across to the Wicklow Mountains. Inside, the design is modern and clean, with laminate flooring, built-in storage units and sliding wardrobes in the bedroom.
No 26 is a half-an-hour walk from Greystones Dart station, or a five-minute drive from the Park and Ride facility. Greystones Marina is a 10-minute drive away, with a selection of cafes, shops and restaurants here. Thanks to the nearby N11, the property’s new homeowners can be in Dublin in 50 minutes.
