This three-bed mid terrace house, 2 Ardfield View, in Grange is perfectly sized and situated for a first-time buyer in Cork City.

There’s been a mix of receiver and private sales at the Ardfield development in outer Douglas, Cork — built by Fleming Construction — and prices in the past year have gone from €150,000 to €260,000, depending on the section, size and condition. 

Tommy Barker revisits 7 Grange Terrace with its vaulted ceiling hall and south-facing garden, offering character and comfort, at a good price.

A three bed semi-d at 33 Ardfield Meadows in Grange would do perfectly for a young family in search of a first home.
