Stylish open-plan waterside apartment

ONE of the smartest apartment developments in Cork city, Harty’s Quay, established a new benchmark for both design and location when it launched two years ago.

This McCarthy Development scheme was the first to introduce modern architecture and gas heating into a large-scale apartment development. And the gamble paid off, with strong demand and even better appreciation for the waterside blocks.

Back on the market as a re-sale is number 34 The Anchorage, a two-bedroom second-floor unit in this gated scheme.

With floor-to-ceiling windows and a long balcony, the apartment has views over Lough Mahon and Hop Island. It’s is on the market with Malcolm Tyrrell of Cohalan Downing for offers in excess of €380,000.

For that money, you get a bright, open-plan unit with top quality flooring, a modern kitchen, two bedrooms with master en suite and a main bathroom.

Management fees are in the region of €1,000 per annum.
