From a traditional thatched cottage to modern Section 23s and spacious family houses, there’s a lot to see this weekend
- HANKERING TO get away from it all? Then have a look at Kylatlea, a 250-year-old thatched cottage near the village of Mullinahone in Co Tipperary for sale through Sherry FitzGerald Walsh at €215,000.
Set on 3.5 acres of grounds that include a large barn, a stream and duck pond (complete with ducks) the protected cottage has plenty of olde worlde charm inside, with its low timbered ceilings and open fireplaces. There’s a good-sized kitchen and parlour downstairs, as well as a bathroom and separate shower room. Upstairs is a single attic bedroom. There are two further bedrooms in a separate wooden chalet-style guesthouse that is heated by a solid fuel stove.
On view Saturday, noon to 1pm
-In Kilmacthomas, Co Waterford, Section 23 tax relief is available both for owner-occupiers and investors in a refurbished mill development with prices starting at €147,000 for two-beds.

The units are spacious and bright with most of them having views over the river and balconies. They are being sold through Waterford agents, Ennis Gough Property.
