Featuring three bedrooms and one bathroom, the semi-detached property is ideal as an investment or a starter home.

It boasts a great location, a back garden complete with a spacious shed, and ample front-of-house parking.

The seller warned that the property won’t be available for long and said it offers exceptional value for money.

On entering the property, guests are greeted by a bright hallway with wooden flooring.

From there, you can access the living room, kitchen, dining room, and downstairs bedroom.

The downstairs bedroom is an inviting and cosy space complete with a large front facing window which allows natural light to pour in.

It also has a statement wall with a built in fireplace as well as laminate wood flooring.

Through folding double doors, you can then access the living room, which is ideal for families.

The large space features a fitted fireplace with a wooden surround, and specially built storage and TV units.

It has plenty of convenient built-in storage, so the floor is an open space for seating and tables.

Through another small hallway is the kitchen, complete with a tiled floor and blue-tiled backsplash along the walls.

Offering plenty of counter space, the room has cupboards built at eye and waist level for convenience.

It’s plumbed for a washing machine and is complete with a sink and a window above, with a view of the back garden.

Also downstairs is an elegant tiled shower room with a shower, sink, and toilet.

Up the carpeted stairs are two bedrooms as well as a small landing and a hot press.

The master bedroom has the major bonus of a built in walk in wardrobe, perfect for storage and space saving.

It has a huge window to allow plenty of natural light and has a carpet floor for a cosy feel.

The second upstairs bedroom also has a huge window, carpet floors, and handy built in drawers and wardrobe space.

To the back of the property is a rear garden with plenty of space for gardening, planting, and decorating.

The other major perk is the shed at the bottom of the garden, which could easily be converted into a home office, a gym, or a games room.

The house is located just a few minutes’ walk to nearby Wexford Town, which has all the necessary amenities.

The area is home to pubs, restaurants, churches, schools, and great shopping.

Heartbroken Tiger Woods reveals death of ‘dear mother’ Kultida at 81 as he pays emotional tribute to ‘my biggest fan’

HEARTBROKEN Tiger Woods has revealed that his “dear mother” Kultida has died aged 81.

The golf legend broke the sad news to fans on social media today.

But Woods did not reveal the cause of death as he paid tribute to his “biggest fan.”

Woods said: “It is with heartfelt sadness that I want to share that my dear mother, Kultida Woods, passed away early this morning. 

“My Mom was a force of nature all her own, her spirit was simply undeniable. 

“She was quick with the needle and a laugh. 

“She was my biggest fan, greatest supporter, without her none of my personal achievements would have been possible. 

“She was loved by so many,  but especially by her two grandchildren, Sam and Charlie. 

“Thank you all for your support, prayers and privacy at this difficult time for me and my family.  Love you Mom.”

Woods’ mother Kultida was originally from Thailand and met his late father Earl, a retired US army officer, in 1968 when he was on a tour of duty in the country.

They ended up settling in Cypress, California.

And Woods, who was their only child, was born there in December 1975.

Putin announces pro-Russian knock-off rival to Eurovision song contest…despite similar showcases flopping in Soviet era

VLADIMIR Putin has announced his own version of the Eurovision song contest despite Russia’s similar Soviet attempts being a huge flop.

The bitter tyrant is set to take on the world famous competition by staging his own anti-Western version after his country was booted out following his terror invasion of Ukraine.

Putin issued a decree to set up a Moscow-led song contest called Intervision.

More than 25 of his ally countries are set to join his contest – including North Korea, Iran, Cuba, and Venezuela.

Mad Vlad has already said his bizarre idea has been backed by his “Chinese friends”.

This sad attempt at recreating Eurovision will reportedly ban LGBT performers.

Putin’s move has been seen as an attempt to revive two similar flopped music contests from the Soviet era.

Communist Russia tried to set up a competition also called Intervision in the 1960s.

This was also aimed to bring together its allies in Eastern Europe and across the world, like Cuba.

Intervision ran between 1965 and 1968, and later between 1977 and 1980.

It is unclear if it will use its bizarre communist-era voting system when TV viewers turned their lights on or off to cast votes, with the results measured by electricity consumption.

The 2025 version of the competition will reportedly showcase “traditional universal, spiritual and family values”.

This would be a sharp contrast to the flamboyance, art, and colour brought through Eurovision – like it’s 2024 winner Nemo from Switzerland.

A Russian planning document said: “Artists may not perform songs that call for violence, humiliate the honour and dignity of society, and it is required that political themes in the lyrics are completely excluded.”

Intervision will also aim to be “developing international cultural and humanitarian cooperation”, according to his presidential decree.

This decree also claimed “the contest will be open for participation of all countries that wish to do so”.

Intervision is reportedly set to give performers four minutes on stage to sing in whatever language they like, according to documents seen by Reuters.

The winner will get prize money and go on tour.

It is not known if Putin will seek to sing at the contest, as he famously did in 2010, performing Blueberry Hill at a live charity event in St Petersburg.

The dictator’s rendition went viral, as he sang in front of guests including Hollywood stars like Goldie Hawn, Kevin Costner, and Sharon Stone.

Putin previously announced he wanted to stage the World Festival of Friendship in 2024 as an alternative to the Olympics – which Russia has also been excluded from.

The tyrant postponed the competition by one year – and then indefinitely in a humiliating U-turn.

Series two of A Place in the Sun: What Happened Next? launches next month.

It will be on screens from Monday, March 17, at 6pm on Channel 4.

The show’s experts reconnect will reconnect with past house hunters and see how things panned out.

While some are soaking up a slower pace of life, others have been hard at work with renovations.

In fact, one couple even opted to get married on the grounds of their new home.

All seem to be in agreement – they wouldn’t swap their lives now in the sunshine to go back to living in the UK.

There will be a total of 20 couples, with news of three weddings, two finding love and, unfortunately, one divorce.

Danni Menzies returns to the show in episode one, to revisit Chris and Marie.

In 2019, the couple bought a two-bedroomed seafront holiday home in Manilva, southern Spain.

Following Chris facing a life-changing accident a few years ago, they have been making the most of their property since.

Chris and Marie treat Danni to lunch in their apartment, before heading to nearby Gibraltar for a trip on the cable car and meet the monkeys.

Elsewhere, fellow presenter Ben Hillman reunites with photographer John at his idyllic village house in Skopelos, Greece.

Now proudly calling the property home, John’s life has changed dramatically since he bought it in 2019.

He also has some very exciting news to share with Ben…

A HIT comedy with a 100% Rotten Tomatoes score that fans ‘binged in three days’ will soon be available to stream on ITV for FREE.

ITVX has confirmed that a full series boxset of the edgy comedy show Extraordinary will be available next month on the 6th March.

Extraordinary is a British superhero comedy television series and it currently has a perfect score on the review site Rotten Tomatoes.

The show centres around the notion that everyone in the world develops a superpower at the age of 18, however, Jen aged 25, still hasn’t discovered hers.

Starring Irish actress Máiréad Tyers and Poldark star Sofia Oxenham as a pair of chaotic flatmates the show focuses on what it means to feel different.

With each episode following Jen’s journey, viewers are drawn into her worries about fitting into a super powered world when she herself has none.

Fans flocked to social media to share their delight with the show and one stated: “I love the Misfits vibe of this show. Showing that superpowers are not always wonderful.”

Another agreed and said: “Incredible comedy! Absolutely love this show and its characters.

“Don’t think I’ve fallen in love and laughed at a show this much in a long time. I recommend to anyone and everyone, it’s a much watch.”

“One of the best new shows I’ve seen – binged season 1 and 2 in less than a 3 days. I highly recommend this amazing British sci-fi comedy.” enthused another.

One fan added: “Extraordinary perfectly balances humour and heartfelt moments seamlessly, making it easy to fall in love with every character individually and the group as a whole.”

Extraordinary won Best Comedy Programme at the 2023 Broadcast Digital Awards.

The series was also nominated for Best Scripted Comedy and Máiréad was nominated in the Best Female Comedy Performance at the Royal Television Society Programme Awards in March 2024.

The second series followed Jen on her journey to uncover her powers as she enrols at the power clinic.

However, she quickly realises that discovering her power is far more challenging than she anticipated, and her personal life proves to be just as turbulent.

But the season ended on a cliffhanger with Jen falling into a void, leaving fans without a resolution.

And despite all the love shown from fans and critics alike, the edgy comedy was axed after two series.

Fans were left devastated by the news as they took to a Reddit forum to share their disappointment.

One wrote: “Such bad news. One of the most creative and entertaining series of the past few years. I loved every second of it. Sad to see we won’t get a Season 3.”

Another added: “This hurts. It was sort of a comfort show. The characters being chaotic and messy but sticking together really got me.”

A third said: “I loved this show so much, I randomly came across it and binged it. I don’t think I have ever seen promotion for it.

“Maybe a British broadcaster can take it on at least for one more season… I need to know what that void is!”

Extraordinary season one is available to stream on ITVX and the second season arrives on 6th March.

Mum leaves people in disbelief after naming her daughter after a popular meal as they cry ‘she’ll be bullied for life’

PICKING the perfect name for your little one isn’t always easy, especially if you want someone a little more unique.

But one mum has left people in disbelief after she gave her daughter a name that sounds exactly like a tasty Italian meal.

She recently took to social media to reveal her little one’s name and people were convinced she was joking.

In the video, the mum, who is called Kayla, revealed she called her bundle of joy Liz Anya.

If you’re thinking that sounds a lot like Lasagne, you’re not the only one.

In the clip, the mum showed her little one in the hospital being wrapped in a blanket and a cute lilac hat.

The text over the clip reads: “So what are you gonna call her?”

Before she showed off the newborn’s name on the hospital info sheet, confirming she gave her the moniker Liz Anya.

Kayla captioned the throwback video: “Happy almost two years to my baby. Can’t believe she’s a toddler now. Liz Anya Maguire.”

After revealing her tot’s name online people still weren’t sure if Kayla was completely serious.

One said: “Just say yes or no, is that her real name?”

Kayla replied with a video of the now two-year-old Liz, responding when called by her name, putting any rumours of her joking to rest.

Some people slammed the mum for the name, as one claimed her daughter would be “bullied for life” because of the name pairing.

“This is cruel if true,” she said.

And a second agreed: “I hope this is a joke because oh wow.”

Meanwhile, others loved the unique name and praised the mum for her unique choice.

“I was like ‘oh what an adorable name, what’s wrong with that?’ then I finally understood, lasagne,” wrote one TikTok user.

“I’m so mad I didn’t think of this! My husband is Italian so this would have been genius lol,” one mum commented on the viral clip.

“This was my go-to for twin girls,” another mum wrote in the comments.

“I wanted to name my daughter Lizard but have everyone call her Liz,” someone else joked.

MORE UNIQUE NAMES

Kayla isn’t the only mum who has come under fire for picking a unique name though, as another parent was recently slammed for her “tacky” choice.

Taking to Reddit, another woman revealed that she “can’t get over” the fact that she recently spotted a child who was named “Khemistry”.

Banned Names in the UK

The UK has no law restricting names, but names that contain obscenities, numerals, misleading titles, or are impossible to pronounce are likely to be rejected when registering a child.

  • Hitler
  • Monkey
  • Cyanide
  • Martian
  • Akuma
  • Chow Tow
  • Rogue

“I’ve got nothing against the kid, it’s not her fault,” she said.

“But my God, the name is horrible. I feel so bad for this little girl.”

Reddit users flooded the comments section of the post, to share their thoughts on the unusual name choice.

One person said: “That name is a crime.”

Another person joked: “Maybe she’ll meet Fysixs and they’ll be best friends.”

A third person said: “As a Chemistry student, I do not approve this message.”
