Dormer houses in Cork’s Landsborough scheme, by Bride View Developments in the 1990s, were always steady re-sellers, popular with families looking to trade up, and with several house types and sizes within it to suit varied budgets.

LANDSBOROUGH, in Cork’s Rochestown, has always been seen as a lofty, trading-up address, but it is literally so elevated that it has views of the hills of Tipperary and the Waterford border, too.
