Looking for a family-size home overlooking the river?

A SOLID, family-sized 1930s house, looking south over the River Lee just on the eastern approach to Cork city, is for sale, carrying a price guide of €300,000.

No 4, The Acre, is in Tivoli, just above the Glanmire Road and the recently created Port of Cork Millennium Park.

To this particular acre there are just six houses, all designed by Col Buchan who did a number of quality Cork homes in the 1930s and '40s and built by Hills.
