IF YOU’VE OFTEN dreamt about owning your own little cottage by the sea, then check out Caisleain Oir.
This cute cottage in the village of Dunmore East, Co Waterford has all the makings of an ideal seaside home with the added advantage of having everything needed for everyday living on its doorstep.
It’s a short stroll from the beach and although it would benefit from an upgrade, it’s ready to move into right away. Offered for sale fully furnished if the buyers want, it’s on the market for a reasonable €290,000.
At 75 m² in size, this is a cosy home with lots of traditional features throughout, from the exposed timber beams to the exposed brick and stone walls.
Inside comprises an open plan space that incorporates the living room, kitchen and dining area. A hallway to the back leads to a utility and family bathroom.
Upstairs sit two nicely-sized double bedrooms. To the back of the house, there’s a garden with handy side entrance seeing as this is an end of terrace home.
The back yard may be small with no grassy patch, it wouldn’t take much to decorate with plenty of potted plants and outdoor furniture for meals in the sunshine.
Just a twenty minute drive from Waterford city, getting here isn’t too taxing whether you decide to jump in the car or take public transport. Home to plenty of restaurants and shops along with water sports to take advantage of nearby, the town of Dunmore East is a popular spot in the summer months in particular.
While Caisleain Oir may not suit as a forever home, there’s no doubt it will appeal to anyone who wants a cosy holiday option coupled with a bit of a project in a pretty seaside location.
