4 of a kind: Family homes with extra car parking space
From a spacious country home in Waterford to a four-bed by the beach in Dublin.
HAVING MORE THAN one car might sound like a great idea in theory, particularly if you live rurally, have young adults at home, or struggle to align everyone’s schedules.
Of course, once you fulfill your dream of being a two-car (or even three-car) house, there’s something altogether more practical to consider: where is everyone going to park?
This week, we’re looking at homes that fulfill the needs of car-owners, with lots of parking spaces for residents and guests.
A happy extra? Each of these homes comes with plenty of greenery and space for growing families.
Duncannon, Co Wexford
This four-bedroom home is located in a small development just a few minutes from the beach and from Duncannon village. It’s a beautiful, spacious property, with high-end features throughout, including a solid fuel stove in the living room.
The bedrooms all boast wooden flooring, and the master bedroom has access to an en-suite bathroom. This home also sits on a sizeable chunk of land, so several cars can park around with ease.
7 Grange Lawn is on sale for prices in excess of €275,000.
Blarney, Co Cork
Newly finished in 2016, this four-bedroom property located just outside Blarney is really an unusual one. The decor features steel and chrome, feature brick walls, and impressive wood flooring throughout.
Also boasting a raised patio area, wide-open spaces and an enormous garage to the rear, this contemporary home would suit a large family who want something a little different from their new place.
The Ward, Co Dublin
An Páirc Wotton is a small and charming development of just 10 houses, each with an A2 energy rating. Located on the Dublin-Meath border, just 30 minutes from the city centre, these homes are a great choice for commuters.
Inside, the property boasts wonderful high ceilings, contemporary decor and plenty of space – including a walk-in wardrobe in the master bedroom. Viewings of this property take place this Saturday and Sunday from 2-4pm.
Homes in An Pairc Wooton are on sale for €750,000.
Sutton, Co Dublin
Sunny, spacious and close to Sutton village, Bouley is a spectacular home that’s packed with high-end features. With timber flooring throughout, a marble fireplace and a Kube kitchen, the home feels contemporary and luxurious.
The parking space is sizeable and convenient, thanks to a the property’s side door – from your car, you can enter directly into Bouley’s kitchen area.
Bouley is on the market for €849,950.
