This six-bed home in Fountainstown in Co. Cork spans an impressive 425 m² and would certainly suit any family with members who have the option of working remotely and want a healthy work/life balance. 

Set behind electric gates, the rooms inside this home are spacious bright and all connect with wonderful flow. A living room and an open plan kitchen with a seating area and a laundry space make up the main social hub of the home. While a dining room makes for more formal meals.

The large living room faces south and has a bay window that grabs the light, while the kitchen space has a double aspect. It has plenty of storage and counter space, too, making it ideal for busy families. 

The cosier lounge with its solid-fuel burning fireplace would be ideal for the winter months. There is also a study which could be used for a multitude of things, be it a home office, den or playroom.

A billiards table is certainly something you don’t find in every home. Home to a full-size billiard table and complete with accessories, it adds a unique hobby into the mix.

There’s also a large indoor swimming pool that’s well maintained. To add even more luxury, there’s a sauna and showering area, too.

The house has six bedrooms but it’s the master bedroom that steals the show. It has a fireplace, a walk-in wardrobe, and an en suite bathroom that’s in great condition and even features a jacuzzi.

    I know this is a copy and paste from Press Association but please, Journal.ie, the name Derry is just fine.Your Irish readers don’t need to see the “official” name in the first paragraph.

    No, simply calling it Derry is not fine. Both sides need recognition so it’s Londonderry, Derry/Londonderry, L/Derry, Stroke City or something similar. Really annoying when rte refer to it only as Derry without also mentioning the correct official name of Londonderry.

    @Richard Ahern: It’s almost as annoying as someone using rte instead of RTÉ, Raidió Teilifís Éireann, the correct official name of the broadcaster. Fadas matter!

    @Joe x: looks like someone took offence to my suggestion of holding back salaries until Stormobt is reestablished and they are doing the jobs they are elected to do…..represent their constituents
