Athboy: €650,000A large, individually designed detached house near Athboy in Co Meath will appeal to families who need plenty of space both inside and out. On the market at €650,000 through Sherry FitzGerald Royal, Tengwe on Frayne Road stands on an acre of level grounds that include an old fruit garden.

Inside, the two-storey cut-stone house has a floor area of 279sq m (3,000sq ft) including four bedrooms and three reception rooms.

Located about a mile and a half from Athboy, the house was built three years ago by the current owners who are relocating. They used a wealth of natural materials in building, including natural blue stone from an original house on the site; red deal floors and doors throughout; quality timber windows and limestone sills.

Curtains, carpets, blinds and kitchen appliances are to be included in the sale.
