You can believe your eyes - sites for €8,000 and homes for €95,000

NEW semi’s for €95,000 and building sites for €8,000? It’s all possible through affordable housing with Cork County Council who offer a range of options for first-time buyers throughout the county.

At the moment, the Millbrook Estate scheme in Kanturk is up and running and has generously proportioned semi’s on offer at €95,000.

Buyers who fit the eligibility criteria can get a house and a mortgage from the council for up to 97% of the purchase cost. The rate, at 3.6%, also includes mortgage protection.
