A gem in Dev country

IT’S not often period properties with land come on the market at an affordable level. If they do, they usually require lots of hard graft and an injection of huge sums of money to make them right again.

In the case of this property in Bruree, however, the rule doesn't apply as the house is in a good, lived-in condition and comes with some extra features that would make it attractive to someone who likes to get their hands dirty.

These include two charming but semi-derelict cottages and a lofted coach house with development potential, as well as stables and five acres of paddock for a few ponies. Unusually, it also comes with its own aviary.
