Looking for bliss ?Then opt for this

Tommy Barker reports on a big, five-bed family home west of Cork City at Cloughduv

Called Aoibhneas, from the Irish word for bliss, this big, five-bed family home west of Cork City at Cloughduv is disconcerting — it’s sort of upside down, and inside out.

It has its main living area on the upper level, with access to a very large balcony, while all five bedrooms, utility and service rooms, plus a playroom are underneath. Most of the ground floor rooms have independent external access — hence the inside-outside connection novelty.
