Guide price goes up as interest grows in well located property

A MERE walk to the local national school and a position off the main Bandon road has drawn huge interest to this property at Skehanagh, Ballinhassig, in Co Cork.

On the market for just a little over a week, bids starting at 350,000 euro are now at 395,000 euro and auctioneer Henry O’Leary has revised his guide price upwards: the property is now on sale at 400,000 euro from an initial 380,000.

Why this house should bring out the eager bidders is probably explained not just by the location, but also by the quality of the build - despite it’s actually needing some finishing.
