One such home is 3 Drumnigh Wood in Portmarnock. A five-bed home that has a generous floor area of 459 m², it stands on half an acre of impeccable grounds and is just a walk from the village and so close to the sea.
From the porcelain tiles in hallway to the high quality fittings in the kitchen, the house is in great nick and provides a great canvas for the next owner to add their own personality.
The rooms on the ground floor include a large and elegant living room. It has a marble fireplace with a gas fire inset and enjoys a double aspect, so it’s filled with natural light.
