WITH NUMEROUS BENEFITS for the planet and for your wallet, it’s easy to understand the appeal of an energy efficient home while house-hunting.
This week we’re looking at four homes around the country that are A-rated for energy – from a new build in Co Louth to a home with smart heating tech in Cork.
Tucked away in a small estate of just 18 houses, 11 Brookfield is an attractive family home. The four-bed property is located within walking distance of a primary school and playground, while Kildare town is a 10-minute drive away. The interior has contemporary, colourful decor throughout, including a modern open-plan kitchen and dining area. Among this home’s energy efficient features are an air-to-water heat pump, triple glazed windows and solar panels. To the rear, there’s a spacious south-facing garden.
Located a short stroll from the Co Louth coast, 4 Railway Park has no shortage of appeal. The detached property was recently constructed and thus comes to the market in turn-key condition. The accommodation spans 2,400 sq ft, including four bedrooms, two reception rooms, three bathrooms and a converted attic. Underfloor heating will keep feet toasty, and an air-to-water heating system will help keep bills lower. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area is spectacular, with views of the sea and mountains here.
Presented in show house condition, 9 Inglenook Wood is a beautiful four-bed family home. The accommodation is laid out over three floors and measures 1,894 sq ft, with tasteful and elegant decor throughout. There is no shortage of attractive features at No 9, including herringbone flooring, a light-filled kitchen and a private south-west facing garden to the rear. With low-emission windows and doors, plus a thermostatically controlled heating system, this home is well set up to minimise energy wastage.
Built in 2019, 60 Mill View is a modern and appealing family home. It features a well laid-out, spacious interior comprising a living room, open-plan kitchen/dining area, utility room, two double bedrooms, one single bedroom and three bathrooms. Features like room-specific temperature controls, air to water heating, underfloor heating and LED lighting throughout the house all contribute to it’s A-rating for energy. There’s a patio and lawn area to the rear, while the front driveway provides parking for two cars. Glanmire town is a 15-minute walk away.
