For a life less ordinary

Bracken Lodge, a detached, four-bed, on five acres is a real goer, reports Rose Martin

Originally pitched at €750,000 in 2011 (the trough of the property slump) this detached house on five acres, while a rarity, failed to catch fire in a depressed market.

But that was then and this is now — plus, the newly re-launched Bracken Lodge now carries an AMV of €590,000.
