House bought for Comiskey sold

A HOUSE bought by the Diocese of Ferns for former Bishop Brendan Comiskey has been sold.

Selling agents Kehoe and Associates have confirmed that the deal has been sealed, signed and delivered.

The bungalow near scenic Curracloe in Co Wexford was bought by the diocese at a cost of €234,000 just over a year ago. The asking price for Bracken Lodge was €265,000 and it is believed this price was achieved, netting the diocese a profit of around €30,000.
