GETTING INTO THE property market can be a daunting experience. Here we make it easy and bring you four of the best properties on the market around the country this week.
Under €250,000
Dublin 1, Dublin – €125,000
This one-bedroom apartment in central Dublin would be suitable for a single person or a couple. Its living space is comprised of a generously proportioned open-plan living/ dining area.
Its main appeal is its Upper Dorset Street location. This puts it within a short walk of all the local amenities as well as the city centre.
One downside is that it comes with an annual management fee of €1,100.
Under €500,000
Ballinlough, Co Cork – €425,000
This property markets itself to family buyers, due to its proximity to four local primary schools. It is a mile from the city centre and close to a number of local sport clubs and amenities.
The house has been extended to the rear with a large sun room. Other additional features include a parquet floor in the hallway, an open fireplace in the living room and a Jacuzzi bath in the main bathroom.
Under €750,000
Annacotty, Co Limerick – €680,000
‘Farmleigh’ stands on its own site of 14.5 acres and much of its grounds are currently in use for agricultural purposes. Included in this are three stables and an American barn. Also on its grounds is a gate cottage, which is said to be in need of modernisation, but which could potentially garner additional rental income.
Three of the property’s four bedrooms come with en suites and built-in wardrobes. The attic is also accessible via Stira stairs and is currently used as storage space.
Under €1 million
Dublin 14, Dublin – €795,000
This property is part of a development of six semi-detached homes. They each come with their own balcony areas and have a unique exterior aesthetic.
A major benefit of these new homes is that they have been constructed to utlise a number of energy-saving features, and as a result have BER ratings of A2. The properties each have landscaped rear gardens and space for two cars to the front.
