CO KILKENNY €365,000:A detached three-bedroom 186sq m (2.000sq ft) .bungalow 25km from the N8 and Urlingford, Co Kilkenny.
Describe the house
The bungalow is set within showpiece mature gardens of half an acre . The house has been completely modernised including rewiring and replumbing with a new cherrywood kitchen complete with Stanley cooker, bathrooms and a new septic tank.
We use the fourth bedroom as a diningroom but as there are two other reception rooms, this could be reverted. There is an office area with broadband and telephone. French doors lead to the sunny walled patio.
Why are you moving?
Our family has moved on and we'd like to move before we are too frail to do so! The plan is to move to an apartment in Dublin.
What's the best thing about it?
It's very private and the garden is a joy. There are rose borders, a trellis of wisteria, honeysuckle and clematis around the back door. The orchard yields much fruit and there are abundant hazelnuts on trees around the garden. A camomile walkway runs front to back under a clematis covered pergola.
And the neighbourhood?
There are uninterrupted views of the countryside from all sides. Urlingford, within walking distance, has all amenities- doctor,supermarkets, etc.
The worst thing we ever had to do was to tell our lovely neighbours that we needed to move.
Who would like to live in your home?
People wanting space for a growing family or even to be self-sufficient. We have a vegetable and soft fruit garden, a herb border and space for chickens.
