Magical deal for home at the hill of the fairy wind

HANKERING after that architect-designed look, and high-end specification and all-dancing all-singing in the shower sanitary ware normally comes at a price... a steep one.

Not so, it seems, in the Dungarvan, west Waterford Gaeltacht district, where a smartly conceived and recently delivered three-bed home ticks all the boxes of those who don’t want a bog standard, box-shaped home.

From the outside, even, of this house at Lagnagoushee (the hill of the fairy wind) you can see extra effort has been made. Take, for example, the glazed ‘bite’ taken out of the roof ridge above the landing and throwing light down into this house’s core.
