Phase two of Clayborne Properties Burgage Manor development at Blessington, Co Wicklow is under way, with three and four-bedroom semis from £179,950 (223,410) and £205,000 (260,300). Two three-bedroom dormer bungalows are also for sale from £188,000 (238,710).

There are also five 1,140 sq ft three-bed semis with sunroom extensions from £188,950 (239,920) and six smaller three-bed semis from £175,950 (223,410). In addition, two 1,100 sq ft three-bedroom dormer bungalows are selling from £188,000 (238,710).

Located on the edge of the village on the road to Baltinglass, the development is attractively positioned in a wooded area.

Houses in the earlier phase front a landscaped green area at the entrance to the development. The site is arranged in a series of cul-de-sacs, with open-plan front gardens. Frontages are either all- brick or brick and render.

The four-bedroom semis from £205,000 (260,300) have a large opened-out living cum diningroom, with a sunroom extension at the dining end. The kitchen off the diningroom at the back of the house has enough room for a smallish breakfast table. Off the hallway is a plumbed utility room and guest toilet.

Upstairs, two of the four bedrooms are doubles, with two single rooms. The main bedroom has a box-bay window, smart wood-look fitted wardrobes and a good-sized en suite shower room.

Five three-bedroom semis with extended sunrooms remain for sale from an earlier phase. Prices from £188,950 (239,920) include the fireplace as standard and a good quality fit-out.

In addition, six new designs of three-bedroom semis are being offered for sale from £175,950 (223,410). The reduced price means allowances for tiling and fireplace are less and there is no sunroom. Two 1,100 sq ft three-bedroom dormer bungalows are for sale from £188,000 (238,710).
