O’Curry Street, Kilkee

€325K DNG O’SULLIVAN HURLEY, (065) 684 0200

Dating from Kilkee’s heyday as a fashionable Victorian place of bathing, this large, end-of-terrace house has been run as a hostel since 1990. It’s on the main street of the town and although it doesn’t have sea views, it’s just around the corner from the Strand Line and the beach, 100 metres away. It stands at 2,433 sq ft and has six bedrooms, currently packed with bunk beds for the tourists who throng the town every summer. There are also two main reception rooms — a living room and a dining room — and a commercial-style kitchen opening to a back yard.
