Book yourself a B&B in Tower

TOWER village, on the outskirts of Cork city, is just a five minute drive from Blarney and it’s not surprising that B&Bs in the area do well.

A former guest house on the Kerry Road, Tower, is now on the market through auctioneer, Dan Fleming and comes with seven/eight bedrooms.

Standing on a third of an acre site and within a walk of a brand new supermarket and a range of shops, the dormer bungalow also comes with a basement level. Reception rooms include a sitting room, lounge, and a kitchen/diner, but the bedrooms could be altered to suit other uses. Or, new owners have the option of going back into the guest house business, which could be lucrative in high season.

At the moment there are three en suite rooms, with three at dormer level and a main bathroom on the ground floor. The basement level provides plenty of storage.

‘Athdarra’ comes with a stone-built, detached garage, oil heating and lawned grounds with high boundaries. And it has a really private and attractive back garden

The property is on offer though auctioneer Daniel Fleming for offers in excess of €400,000.
