Finish it off in your own style

PUTTING your own stamp on a property in Co Kerry comes as part of the territory. Situated on a two-acre site, a mile from Kilgarvan village, Cahir Wood is being sold with a builder’s finish.

The owners will fit their own kitchen and will choose floors and tiling.

On the market for €285,000, the property has access to the Roughty River, is surrounded by woods and is an ideal family home, according to auctioneer John Daly. “It’s just 20 minutes from Killarney,” he says.

Accommodation consists of a lounge, conservatory, bedroom, dining area, utility and toilet downstairs. Upstairs there are two more bedrooms, one of them en suite.

The south-facing conservatory draws light in, while the open-plan layout maximises space.

The auctioneer estimates it will cost between €20,000 to €30,000 to put the finishing touches to this property.

He points out that families living in Killarney but seeking a home in the countryside will be interested in this property.
