There must be some bragging rights going with Linaro House — it’s almost certainly the first fully certified passive house makeover to come to the Cork city property market, hitting an A1 BER in its confident stride and with ease.

It’s backed up by ‘belt and braces’ energy-efficient features, and more insulating layers than a furry polar bear, all for the lowest possible running costs and options: but, there’s more to it than ‘just’ its passive and eco-street cred.
