Midlands Park Hotel | Saturday, 25th May 2024
About the summit
Welcome to the Irish Rural Home Summit, the one event for anyone looking to build, improve or buy a rural house in Ireland.
The Irish Rural Home Summit is here to help you explore all things related to living in the countryside. Join us for talks on getting grants and figuring out finances. Learn from builders who've turned vacant houses into cosy homes. Understand the rules and plans for rural housing, and discover ways to make your home sustainable and energy-efficient.
We'll cover topics like mortgages, different home options and the importance of community. Find out about building on new land, restoring old homes and other choices available.
We'll also talk about creating a friendly community around your forever home and dive into how technology can make your rural life smart and connected. Join us at the Irish Rural Home Summit to make your countryside living dreams come true!
