TAKE one large, period house on an acre, in the much-sought after suburb of Blackrock, add three new, detached houses and you have Glandore Manor.

HOT on the heels of the sale of 40, Lindville, (agreed at around €800,000), comes 46, Lindville, its neighbour and a near-identical property on Cork’s Blackrock road.

FLUSHED with the success of a recent sale, auctioneer Billy Casey of Casey and Kingston has another large, detached property for sale in the western suburbs.

THERE’LL be a battle of the burghers and the upwardly mobile for this tasty property with water frontage, at Bayswater, in Cork.

HOW appropriate that Bryan and Kerry 'Queen of the Jungle' McFadden are rumoured to being buying Cooleville in Co Tipperary.

A choice of two Cork city properties at around the same price: 30, the Maples, Frankfield, left, and Timariu at 27 Eagle Valley, Wilton.
