Unconventional high spec Rushbrooke semi

RAIL, road and ferry are access options at the Rushbrooke, Cobh, house Anduain. A larger than life semi which certainly doesn’t fit the conventional image of the term, this home has 2,000 sq ft of space, all done to a high spec, and was built just four years ago.

It is gone singularly large in several respects, belying its attached status (in fact it was first conceived of as a very large single home.) It comes with five bedrooms, and a half acre site, complete with garage.

Estate agent Roy Dennehy seeks €420,000 for the house, (currently under offer at €380,000) which overlooks the passing to and fro-ing of the Carrigaloe-Glenbrook river ferry.

Views are a real feature of this west-facing architect designed house with its bay windows and terrace, with internal features including lots of maple floors and low voltage lighting.

Rooms include L-shaped sitting room/study with bay window, sun lounge, dining room/kitchen area with units in maple and a central island unit, with utility, guest WC and cloakroom.

Two of the five bedrooms have good ensuite facilities, and the bedrooms have access to a large balcony with river and anchorage views, with shipping traffic up to Cork city a changing backdrop.

Anduain has mains services, and shares a right of way access with one other house, and the bulk of the grounds need landscaping.
