Homes come with attractive guide price

TWO attractive little cottages in Montenotte, restored residential quarters of the former St Mary’s Convent, are now up for sale with an attractive guide price for first-time buyers.

Julie O’Sullivan of Property Team O’Sullivan Estates has registered ‘fierce interest’ in these perfect pied a terres on the tip-top of Cork city.

There are just four of these cottages set around a courtyard with a perfect grass rectangle.

Fully restored with natural slate roofs and new PVC windows, both properties have an open plan living area, two bedrooms, a bathroom and entrance hallway.

Number 10 has the larger living space of the two, but the bedrooms of number 8 are both larger. The really strong selling point is that both houses are floated at €195,000, but number 10 has an offer of €200,000 so far. A parking space for each house is also a nice bonus.
