Killorglin, Kerry, €399,000

On its approach side it’s mostly wall, with a few slender windows either side of the front door with its distinctive conical slate roof, and couple of overhead small Veluxes sort of complete the private picture, But, spin around to the other side, and all is revealed: no less than five dormer windows on the roof line, and as many ground floor windows as well, giving all of the main rooms garden and mountain views.
Built now for a decade or two, this 3,200 sq ft five-bed is described as “probably the most prestigious property on the market in the Killorglin area,” notes selling agent Edmond O’Donoghue, who prices the privately-set home accordingly at €399,000.
