Three bed semi in superb suburban location

IF you are prepared to roll up your sleeves just a bit, the house Coolmaine - named after a West Cork beach - might be right up your suburban Cork alley.

The semi-detached bungalow called Coolmaine is on the city end of the Boreenmanna Road, a couple of hundred yards from the south city link road and a short walk to the city centre.

Best location marker is the Glenanaar bar, which is across the road, but you’ll have to scout to find this three-bedroomed hideaway - high walls and stout steel gates give it lots of privacy.
