4 of a kind: Impressive detached homes not to be missed

From west Cork to Tullamore town, here’s what’s on offer.

IF PRIVACY AND extra space are on your list of priorities, then a detached home that’s well over 100 m², and no one overlooking, is probably in your sights.

This week, we’ve found four homes across the country with enough room to swing a cat and three. From west Cork to Tullamore town, check out these large homes with no nosy neighbours.

Stamullen, Co Meath – €795,000

Winterwood is an exceptionally large five-bed in Meath with a floor area of 310 m². It also sits on half an acre and overlooks the Meath and Dublin countryside, so no doubt space is no issue here. The rooms inside comprise an entrance hall that links to the large living room, a big open plan kitchen and dining space and four double bedrooms along with the family bathroom. The added bonus in the self-contained apartment with its large double bedroom, bathroom, and larger open plan kitchen and sitting room.

There’s plenty of parking outside and ample garden space for anyone with green fingers. A great location for hybrid workers who may need to take a trip to the city every now and then, the house is near Stamullen and Naul village with great links to Dublin.
