Smart house will appeal to village people

EVEN in a seller's market, you still have to keep one up on the competition, especially if you're aiming at the middle to upper level.

The Parkes Brothers, developers of three townhouses in Tramway Terrace, Douglas are probably the first company to add smart technology to their scheme in the centre of the Cork village.

Just completed, these units are being marketed through Billy Casey of Casey Kingston and he's inviting offers in the region of €500,000 for these three-storey properties.
