Just add a few finishing touches

JUST a few little things remain to be done at Coolowen, Blarney, Co Cork, where this 2,000 square foot house is now up for sale.

A lick of paint to the front, some tinkering to the stone wall boundary and the house is ready for new owners.

The four to five-bedroomed house is on the market with Michael Downey of ERA Downey McCarthy Murphy and he quotes a guide price of €500,000.

Sitting on an acre site, just outside Blarney, it’s perfect trading-up material, but also comes with a detached office or little house which is wired and plumbed to domestic standards.

Inside, the main house has big rooms, including an impressive kitchen/diner in chestnut and four double bedrooms, with master en suite.

The grounds are all in grass with young trees planted at the back and a garden this size would offer a lifetime challenge to any new owner.
