This surprising newbuild family home in Tipperary is on the market for €299,500

With a river running along its garden border and a period style of architectural style, this Borrisokane, Co Tipperary property will make a comfortable family home.

Can’t make up your mind what you want from your next home? You’d love a new build with all brand new everything, but you also love period features and something with personality? Do you want a project to put your mark on but also not too much of a project where jobs that suck up most of your budget and time are sight unseen?

Well this house in the heart of Borrisokane town in Tipperary might just be it. For sale with two agents, DNG and REA, it’s currently on the market for €299,500. The three-bedroom home might look like it’s been recently renovated thanks to the paned windows and reclaimed slates, but in fact, it’s a completely new build.

Situated over three floors, it’s plenty spacious stretching to 179 square metres. The bathrooms have been mostly completed, plasterwork and painting are done and some flooring is laid, but other than that it’s ready to have final touches added by the new owner.

Through the red front door and its period-esque fan light is a fine hallway and pine staircase with a WC underneath. To the left is the dual-aspect kitchen/dining space just waiting to be fully fitted. Located off this is a utility room that is plumbed for a washing machine and dryer. To the right is a bright living room with an open fireplace and also has dual-aspect onto both the street in front and the garden to the rear.

On the first floor is the principal bedroom, which overlooks the private back garden and has its own en suite bathrooms. It, as well as the other two bedrooms, is painted with laminate floors painted. There’s also a guest bathroom located on this floor. On the top storey are two fine-sized storage rooms that could operate as extra bedrooms, office space or games rooms.

Located on a plot of 0.15 acres, there’s ample space for parking to the rear as well as a green area that overlooks Ballyfinboy River, it’s got the best of both rural and urban living.
