Two-storey extension adds to overall attractiveness

NUMBER 11, The Willows in Bridgemount, Carrigaline, Co Cork, is an extended four-bedroom semi that’s listed with the new offices of DNG Harris in Carrigaline.

Heading up the fourth outlet of the DNG franchise is auctioneer, Michael Twomey, who’s looking forward to the official opening at Carriglea House, on the Kilmoney Road, next month.

In the meantime, he’s selling houses like number 11, which he describes as a really smart and well maintained home.

Originally a three bedroom property, it’s had a two-storey extension added to the side which gives more living space on the ground floor and a very attractive, master suite overhead.

At the guide price of €370,000, this compares well with standard four-bed semi’s in the area, says Mr Twomey, who expects a surge of interest from an awakened market.

Set in a quite and mature cul-de-sac, the house is a walk to the centre of Carrigaline and is in pristine condition, says the agent.
