Homes in Ireland under $300K

$300,000 is where Ireland starts to feel reasonable. You can buy a three-bed in Limerick or Waterford city, a townhouse in Cork's outer suburbs, or a well-kept rural home with an acre in the southwest. Dublin is still out of reach unless you count Balbriggan or distant commuter towns 45 minutes out. At this level expect modern B-rated energy ratings on newer builds, functional kitchens, and actual insulation. Families often stretch to this tier for access to decent national schools. It is the realistic floor for anyone targeting the Cork-Limerick-Galway triangle without major compromises.
