Classic country village living that’s close to the city

VILLAGE life passes by the window of Cushla, which is in the heart of Tower, in Co Cork.

With its back to the centre and its wide picture windows taking in the woodland views of the River Martin valley, this is a classic two-storey country house.

Now on the market again after its sale over three years ago, the house returns to the market fully refurbished and carrying a E425,000 price tag, through Robert Harkin of Countrywide Homes.

Cushla has a large site in the village and is just a short walk from everything, including a brand new shopping centre.

The house offers four decent bedrooms, three living rooms and comes with bright, tastefully furnished rooms, says Robert Harkin.

All floors are in Canadian oak and doors and architraves are new, as is the kitchen.

This big kitchen/dining room is fitted with simple, and attractive maple units, black granite worktops and a large, plumbed island. Also included is a separate laundry room.

The bedrooms are a decent size and there’s a main bathroom as well as en suite master bedroom.

Gas heating is installed and the gardens are mature and private: also included are two storage sheds.

In a great position in the village, Cushla is bound to attract trader-uppers close by and will also suit families looking for a safe and quiet environment but within a 15 minute commute of the city.
