The Development

is a unique development of 3 & 4 bedroom luxury contemporary “A” rated homes.

Overlooking Kinsale town and harbour, Convent Garden’s superb location, only a few minutes stroll to the town centre, enhances the calm, peaceful, relaxing atmosphere which the Architect Haroldo de Oliveira, of Jack Coughlan & Associates Architects, set out to create through the detailed design and layout of Convent Garden.

The scheme is designed to fit in to the Kinsale landscape.

Vertical slate cladding, which is synonymous with Kinsale, has been incorporated in the exterior façade of some of the homes to reflect this connection with the past.

“A” Rated Homes Energy Conservation, Sustainability and Cost are of the utmost concern and importance in today’s world. Convent Garden Homes are constructed to the exacting standards required to achieve the “A” Building Energy Rating, thereby ensuring that running costs, in these Homes, can be kept to a minimum.

Building Energy Rating (BER) The Building Energy Rating (BER) is an indication of the energy performance of a building. It covers energy use for central heating, water heating, ventilation and lighting.

“A” rated properties are the most energy efficient and have the lowest energy bills. They also produce very low Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions. The less CO2 produced, the less the dwelling contributes to global warming.
