Home set to exceed target

ONE of the most in-demand estates in Carrigtwohill in Co Cork, Rocklands is a 69-house development which was built to a high standard about seven years ago.

Already there have been 15 viewings for 47A Rocklands, says Mark Gosling of James G Coughlan and Associates, who gives a guide price of €255,000, but expects that to bid up, based on the viewing figures.

He says the house is in perfect condition and it comes with a generous and very sunny back garden.

Inside the property there’s lots of extras and the master comes en suite: the kitchen is Shaker maple and the garden includes a south-facing deck.

Carrigtwohill is well placed for access to Cork city with excellent road connections and a promise of a station on the rail line to Midleton which, when it reopens, will guarantee large increases in property prices in this area in the same way that Bray benefited from the DART.
