Looking for bliss ?Then opt for this
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.
Because of its novel layout and other features, it featured in a TV house build programme a number of years ago (when in different ownership) and now is new to market once more with Norma Healy of Sherry FitzGerald, who guides it at €515,000.
It’s just shy of 3,000 sq ft, on an acre, with underfloor heating, good finishes and a top-deck run of kitchen/dining room, dining room and family room (with wood-burning stove) all in-a-row, each about 18’ wide and with feature extra high/pitched ceilings and recessed lights, whilst there’s lovely views from the main family room and sweep of balcony beyond, adds Ms Healy.
The property has oil central heating, and a double garage, helping to fashion a sort of courtyard cluster.
Location is near Cloughduv village which has a new school and GAA facilities, and the city and Ballincollig are now an easy drive away too thanks to improved bypass roads and flyovers.
