Ireland: Kerry
You would definitely have to be in the market for a full renovation job for this Old School House just outside Moyvane in Co Kerry, which has the potential to become a charming little home. It is on a site of 0.37 acres (0.15 hectares), with water and electricity connections available along the road. As it has been vacant for so long, buyers will be able to apply for the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant which could add up to €50,000 to the pot, with another possible top-up of €20,000 as the building is derelict.
