Right address, but lower price

FANCY moving in with the big boys and girls - at a fraction of the price?

The last few sales on Cork’s Rochestown Road have been to the heavy hitters, weighing in at €2 million for Gerald Goldberg’s Ben Truda, bought by an architect, and Gortalough, sold for €4 million and bought by an accountant who is now spending further sums on it.

Here’s one priced a bit lower - ‘just’ €500,000, but in truth all it has in common with the other sales is the address....the right hand side of the Rochestown Road.
