Property Description

A recently renovated 3 bedroom Dormer Bungalow with large separate garage located in Kinsale. Waterlands has benefited from the home energy upgrade scheme to achieve an outstanding A3 BER rating. Located on a quiet plot surrounded by mature south facing gardens, just minutes walk from Kinsale town centre. Waterlands extends to c.128 sq. m.

A self contained fully serviced garage with an approximate area of 52sq.m. is located to the rear of the property, with its own separate entrance. Waterlands, built in 1985, underwent a dormer conversion circa 2001 and has recently undergone a comprehensive renovation with a primary focus on energy efficiency. Central to this improvement is the installation of an air-to-water heat pump, which efficiently supplies all heating and hot water requirements for the property. This system is complemented by several other energy-saving features, including high-level insulation throughout the building to minimize heat loss, triple glazed windows to enhance thermal retention, and both demand and humidity controlled ventilation. These works have increased the BER to an impressive A3 rating, allowing the property to qualify for a Green Mortgage rate. In addition to the energy upgrades the home owners completed a cosmetic renovation of all rooms within the house. The standard and finish of the internals of the property are truly impressive & consistent throughout. The property has its own private services including bored well water supply and septic tank.
