A CONSERVATORY IS A charming addition to any home, adding space, light and (in summer, anyway) heat to existing spaces.
A large conservatory or sunroom can double the existing living accomodation of a property, so they’re useful for growing families too.
If you like the sound of that extra space – and a regular sunshine fix – here are four properties that fit the bill. Plus, they’re all on the market right now…
Malahide, Co Dublin
Located in the heart of Malahide, this four-bedroom dormer bungalow is close to the action, while still retaining a country feel. There are three reception rooms here, so there is plenty of space for relaxing or entertaining.
The most impressive feature is surely the Hamptons of Portrush-designed conservatory, which features stylish recessed lighting and a wood-burning stove.
Oughterard, Co Galway
Situated on over ten acres of woodland, Eglington House is perched on the shores of Lough Corrib, offering panoramic views to its new owner. Gardens to the front and rear, plus a long gravel driveway, all offer a sense of total privacy and seclusion from the outside world.
The four-bedroom home was completely refurbished in 2016, and offers plenty of space, including a separate office with a dual aspect. The sun-drenched conservatory features floor-to-ceiling glass, and leads out onto a south-facing patio.
Sneem, Co Kerry
Mermaid Isle is a fairytale home, tucked away by the ocean in rural Sneem, Co Kerry. The sale includes two stunning homes – a cottage and a four-bedroom bungalow – plus half of the private island lands.
The larger home boasts a library, gym and Gothic-style finishings throughout, giving the home an otherworldly feel. The smaller cottage is home to a large conservatory, which affords views across the Atlantic.
Mermaid Isle is on the market for €1,900,000.
Julianstown, Co Meath
Set on 9 acres of land and with an enviable location that’s both tranquil and close to Dublin, Rockbellew is a fantastic home that would suit a large family. There are 4 bedrooms, with the master suite encompassing a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite bathroom.
The conservatory on the grounds is wraparound, affording lots of space to relax in, and is joined by 2 more reception rooms that have a rustic, homely feel. There’s also a cottage-style kitchen and a stable block to the rear.
Price available on application.
