Taking the form of a three-bedroom house constructed from stone, Brookhill Lodge, located in Barrowmount, Goresbridge, Co Kilkenny has been represented by Sherry FitzGerald McCreery. With more than three acres to its name and origins, dating back to 1753, this structure served as the stewards’ lodging for the adjacent Barrowmount House Estate. Over the passing years, various renovations have expanded its interior to 135sq m (1,453sq ft), highlighting bare stone walls and inviting fireplaces. High-quality double-glazed sash windows installed up front are a recent addition. Externally, its driveway is flanked by a pair of connected paddocks, with a stream coursing somewhere on the premises. Homegrown enthusiasts will appreciate the tidy grass, raised bedding, fruit trees and kitchen garden. Its beautiful stone edifice and available space for a pony add to its charm. However, its Ber rating of E2 requires some attention.
The Winter Garden, nestled on Pearse Street in Dublin 2, houses a two-bedroom flat represented by Hooke & MacDonald. Occupying the first level of the sought after Winter Garden structure, this residence spans 64sq m (689 sq ft). It boasts two sizable bedrooms and a safeguarded parking area allocated particularly for this unit housed in the lower level. Major corporate establishments, legal facilities, the Dart and Trinity College are just a stone’s throw away from this luminous, C1-rated apartment. Among its appealing qualities are its convenient location, well-lit interiors, and personal parking provisions. However, the fact that it only has a single washroom might be seen as a downside.
