The Premier League returned last weekend and for the next eight months many of us are likely to be cheering on our favourite teams as they bid for the title, European places or even to avoid the drop.
It has also been a good week for Irish teams with both Shelbourne and Shamrock Rovers winning their first leg ties as they bid to both qualify for the Europa Conference League group stages.
Whether you support a football team at home or abroad or not, most of us have enjoyed a kick about at one stage or another be it in school, with friends, family or with kids or even grandkids.
That’s why this superb home in Brittas Bay in Co Wicklow is sure to catch the eye.
While 8 Cornagower Park has many amazing features, it is its sporting facilities that immediately stand out with a five-a-side pitch and a basketball court both to be found on site.
This A-rated home was fully redeveloped in 2023, with a complete transformation effectively creating a brand-new, energy-efficient home behind the original shell.
Cornagower Park is a discreet, gated enclave located just 100 metres from the shoreline of beautiful Brittas Bay.
This exclusive setting offers rare proximity to the beach, with generous plots, mature landscaping and impressive detached homes tucked away in a tranquil, leafy environment.
Renowned for its privacy and direct access to the sea, Cornagower Park is ideal for those seeking space, seclusion and a true connection to nature — all within a secure, private community.
No. 8 is a striking, future-proofed home of exceptional quality, extending to approximately 2,866sq ft on over half an acre of private grounds.
Set within this coveted development, the property is a bespoke, one-of-a-kind new build completed to the most exacting standards — a rare opportunity just steps from the coast.
The design fuses cutting-edge innovation with timeless comfort. Every element has been meticulously considered, from the contemporary architectural lines to the carefully curated interiors, which balance natural textures with refined modern finishes.
High-end appliances, intelligent lighting, underfloor heating and advanced energy-efficient systems are seamlessly integrated to support a sustainable and luxurious lifestyle.
The accommodation comprises of an entrance hall, open plan kitchen/dining/living area, utility room, bar/lounge, garden room, studio suite, four bedrooms and a main bathroom.
Outside there is a driveway, courtyard, outdoor room with built-in fireplace and seating area, an outdoor kitchen, a hot tub zone, a football pitch with FIFA-approved synthetic grass, a basketball court with a striking red and black finish with Jordan logo and professional half court markings, a treehouse zone and a home gym.
This really is a home that would be top of the table if it was being compared to others in the area.
The setting couldn’t be much better either. Set along Ireland’s scenic east coast, Brittas Bay is widely regarded as one of the country’s most desirable seaside locations, known for its expansive 5km Blue Flag beach, protected dunes and unspoiled natural beauty. Just over an hour from the capital via the M11, it offers an idyllic, outdoor lifestyle with exceptional accessibility.
Brittas Bay is a designated Special Area of Conservation and a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. Its golden sands, rolling dunes and diverse wildlife support a wide range of activities, from surfing and swimming to scenic walks and nature watching. The area is well-served with amenities including seasonal lifeguard services, public facilities, ample parking and the much-loved Bay Café.
