Discoveries

Every Discovery begins with one question: could your property do this?

An Irish back garden at dusk with a lit timber garden room, a steaming barrel sauna, a hot tub in use and a plunge pool set among decking and planting. Garden Journey coming soon Garden Retreat The smallest way to make your garden somewhere you go takes about a square metre — and the biggest is the whole garden. A sculptural timber pod raised clear of the lawn on splayed legs in an Irish back garden, with a timber stair and deck leading up to it.

An ordinary Irish sitting room during filming, with a camera on a tripod, a boom microphone overhead and two crew at the monitor. Income Journey coming soon Your Home On Screen Some productions go looking for an ordinary house on an ordinary street. Yours might be one. An Irish semi-detached house with two cars parked in its two driveway spaces. Income Property check live Driveway Income Your driveway is empty for most of the day.
