Close to the finish line

A HOUSE fit for the fit or for those intending to become fit, is for sale within a few furlongs of Cork racecourse above Mallow.

The recently-built large home has stables for those into horses and has its own indoor heated swimming pool, gym and hard surface tennis court as well for human creature work-outs.

If you are not into horses and just into keeping fit, the 5.2 acres of grounds will provide a bit of grass cutting exercise - especially if you choose to use a push lawnmower. On second thoughts, hold those horses. Lynlual is a contemporary home built along classical or Georgian proportions - hence a sense of symmetry in the facade and the modest reproduction porch entrance complete with obligatory white supporting columns.
