The owners of this €395k Cloyne house had a ‘covid project’ that you could say was immeasurably more ambitious than squidgy calorie-laden banana bread...

They built a 5sq m fully insulated garden room with electric heating and a porch that’s currently set up as a home gym. They also built a covered ‘dining room’ in the back garden of this four-bed semi-detached home.

Built in 2018, No 27 Cois Na Crainn on the Ballymaloe Road has had one set of owners — a family of two adults and two children. They’re now moving overseas for work so this A-rated home is on the market.

Kyle Kennedy of Kennedy Estate Agents says the 144 sq m home is an“exceptional property with an impressive A2 BER and low running costs thanks to air to water heating and superior insulation”.

“It’s five minutes in to Cloyne which has The Rock gastropub which serves food and has live music. And you’re a 10-minute spin from Midleton.”

The living room has two windows to the front and double doors linking to the good-sized kitchen/dining room which opens onto the garden so there’s good light. Glass-panelled doors downstairs also contribute to a feeling of airiness.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms — the main one has an ensuite bathroom and one is currently in use as an office but new owners may move that to the garden room.

This development was made by East Cork based Chriselle Holdings who are also the builders of Ardchríocha at Ladysbridge where the second phase is due to come to market soon.

“They have a great reputation across the whole of east Cork for lovely block-built homes with great extras and details like solid boundary walls too,” notes Mr Kennedy.

VERDICT: Immaculate-looking versatile home.
