In January, at the height of a pandemic-enforced lockdown, we can only dare to dream of summer holidays.
And in a land-locked county here in Laois, a trip to the seaside isn’t an option any time soon.
But the Coronavirus will pass and things will return to normal at some stage, however long it takes.
This week in our Property Watch, we take a look at some homes for sale around the country in seaside locations that are currently on the market. So whether it’s a holiday home you’re after or you’re considering upping and heading for the coast for good, we look at properties in Waterford, Wexford, Kerry, Clare and Donegal.
