With the cost of sites constantly shooting up, it is rare enough that a development of detached bungalows comes on the market. Not surprisingly, the first phase of bungalows in the Cherry Hill Manor scheme in Kells, Co Meath, sold quickly last autumn and the next tranche of houses is now going for sale. The four-bedroom bungalows have a floor area of 1,600 sq. ft, and are particularly well finished. An interesting feature is the kitchen and lounge at the back which have raised ceilings. Priced at £139,000, the houses are now cheaper than many of the new three-bed semis in the Dublin suburbs. Joint selling agents are Leahy Commuter New Homes and T & G Gavigan.
