Trading up: Rochestown, Cork 325,000

THERE’S a sort of back and front internal layout mix going on at 1, Foxwood Drive — this bungalow home has got bedrooms and its day-time space at both the front and rear.

This 1,100 sq ft three-bed home is in good, clean running order, and is set in the Foxwood, Garryduff development in Cork’s Rochestown, and is new to market with a 325,000 AMV via agent Ann O’Mahony of Sherry FitzGerald.

It has its main living room just to the right of its central entrance hallway with bay window and open fireplace. Across the hall is the en suite master bedroom, midships is bedroom no 3, facing the main bathroom, and to the back of the house is bed 2 next to the 20’ by 12’ kitchen/dining room, with pine units and patio doors to the west-facing back garden.

That back garden is both walled and well-screened with mature planting around the edges, plus lawn and small patio, and there’s a garden shed almost hidden in the greenery.

VERDICT: Ideal for traders-down, or young families as there’s even a new national school built nearby in the last five years.
