Killygarry School to feature on RTÉ One’s ‘The Great House Revival’

Our project to refurbish, extend and convert the old Killygarry School to a family home is to be featured on new RTÉ One show; The Great House Revival. The show, due to air in spring 2018, forms part of a series of six episodes documenting the restoration of vacant, derelict and abandoned buildings to modern family homes.

 

Killygarry Old School, built in 1894, lay derelict for over 20 years and its demolition was imminent. This hour long show documents the entire process of its  ambitious restoration and conversion to a family home. The project involves the addition of a striking contemporary extension to the building. The show is hosted by architect Hugh Wallace, known to many as a presenter of Home of the Year.
