This week our series moves to Co Kerry, where two properties under €200,000 highlight the contrast between a small holding with land and a compact village house. One offers space and ground to work with, while the other keeps everything within walking distance.
A property at Lacka West, Lisselton comes to the market with an asking price of €195,000. Selling through Mannix Property Services, the holding extends to approximately 7.6ac and includes a dwelling set within its own land.
The property is arranged as a single unit, with the house positioned centrally and the land surrounding it. While modest in scale, it provides an opportunity for a buyer to combine a residence and ground in one holding, something that is becoming less common at this price level.
The land itself offers scope for small-scale use, whether for grazing or general lifestyle purposes, and its layout means it can be worked without needing to be broken up or reorganised.

Located in north Kerry, the property is approximately 1.2km from Lisselton bus stop, which is served by Bus Éireann routes to Limerick, adding a level of connectivity within a rural setting.
The dwelling may also qualify for both the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant and SEAI supports, subject to meeting the relevant criteria, which may be a consideration for buyers planning renovation works.

In contrast, a house at Main Street in Brosna comes to the market with an asking price of €160,000.

To the rear, the property includes an enclosed courtyard along with a separate plot, providing additional outdoor space beyond what is typically associated with a mid-terrace house.
The village setting places shops, services and local amenities within walking distance, while Abbeyfeale West bus stop is approximately 7km away, offering Bus Éireann connections towards Killarney and the surrounding area.
It offers a more manageable option, without the requirement to maintain land, but with the benefit of being located in the centre of a village.
