A brighter perspective on life at Sun View Villas

BUILT over 100 years ago as accommodation for doctors in a nearby hospital, 2 Sun View Villas is still in good health and showing few signs of its age.

The mid-terraced house, on the South Douglas Rod in Cork city, has a full-on, stripped down modern interior that belies its Centenarian status.

Think contemporary apartment design, slipped between the walls of a house that gives nothing away from the outside and you get an idea of the surprises in store and that's why the sales brochure with Global Properties kicks off with the legend 'don't judge a book by its cover."
