Holiday home with a difference

LOCK, stock and barrel — that’s how this four-bedroomed holiday home at Dubh Carraig, Ardmore, Co Waterford, is being sold.

And as furnishing standards go, this ain't half bad. Chintzy chairs and a New England-style kitchen are not run of the mill fittings with holiday homes but these and some other expensive fixtures and fittings are thrown into the bargain.

Terence O'Leary of O'Mahony Walsh Property Partners is looking for offers in the region of €300,000 for this end of terrace property.

To make the most of the views and first floor veranda, the owners converted the house at the building stage and all of the bedrooms are now on the ground floor and the living area overhead.

Timber floors are fitted in all the bedrooms and the master comes ensuite there's also a main bathroom. All the bedroom furniture is included in the sale and all bathrooms are fully tiled and fitted with showers.

The purchasers will, however, have to foot an annual stipend for a management company.

Located in the village, the beach is at the door and good restaurants, pubs and shops are minutes away.
