The final phase of The Cloisters, a small development of 32 four bedroom semi-detached houses, at Clane, Co Kildare, is being released next Saturday with prices starting at £155,000. Leahy Property Consultants is selling the last eight units in this Cornerstone scheme, which allows purchasers to choose from a list of additional features and have them incorporated in their new home. Commuters from Clane benefit from the Swift rail service at Sallins, which provides a 30-minute service to the city. It is also close to the motorway network for access to Dublin and further afield. The houses have a floor area of 1,340 sq ft (not including the conservatory) and cost from £155,000, with homes on larger sites costing a little extra. There are two distinctly different styles of houses on offer - one with a traditional layout and the other in ultramodern style. They have a half-brick facade with full length bay windows to the front.

The classical house has a large sittingroom with a window seat, cast-iron fireplace and an inter-connecting diningroom. The kitchen is also large enough to breakfast in and there is a downstairs cloakroom. The main bedroom is spacious, with an en suite shower. The three other bedrooms are almost equal in size. The family bathroom has ornate bathroom taps as standard.

In the ultra-modern house type, the bay-windowed sittingroom is separate from the diningroom. There are wall niches and recessed spot lighting. Here, the dining area is incorporated into a large openplan kitchen with a utility room. Kitchen units are "modern chic" with an island worktop. A conservatory opens off the kitchen/diningroom. The main bedroom upstairs has a large en suite and the smallest of the other three can be converted to a study. There is a back-lit glass block feature in the family bathroom. The Cloisters is set in a cul-de-sac overlooking a landscaped green area and with Clane Tennis Club to the front.
