Co Kerry/from €290,925: Tax breaks are available with an attractive new holiday home scheme under construction at Waterville on the scenic Ring of Kerry. This is a project by Mike Price of the Dublin interiors company Inside, and the four-bedroom houses are finished to an impressively high standard.

Prices, including complete fit-out, range from €290,925 for semis and €307,950 for detached houses. Tax relief at 89 per cent is offset on rental income over 10 years.

Carraig Eanna looks over Waterville golf course, two minutes from the village and 10 minutes' walk from the beach. Investors will be delighted with the quality fit-out at the Waterville scheme.

The 130 sq m (1,400 sq ft) semi-detached and detached houses come fully furnished and ready to let, down to the last detail. Where possible, furnishings and accessories are sourced from the Inside company.
