Co Louth: from €328,500A small development of just eight semi-detached three-bedroom houses in the village of Tullyallen, near Drogheda, Co Louth is being firmly pitched at first-time buyers with prices starting from €328,500.

Located four miles from Drogheda town centre and close to the M1, the scheme will appeal to buyers on a budget who are prepared to swap a city address for more space in a countryside setting. The houses, being sold from plans through Sherry FitzGerald New Homes, are being built in a site high above the Boyne in a popular location. The houses are traditional in design with front and back gardens, a rarity in the greater Dublin area.

A high-spec finish is expected to attract young buyers who won't compromise on comfort.
