Edwardian villa will need some attention from new owner

ALTHOUGH in need of a lick of paint and looking modest enough on the outside, this semi-detached Edwardian villa in Rushbrooke, Co Cork, has lots more unseen room.

In fact, at the rear it has three storeys and another projecting gable, which adds credence to the asking price of €450,0000.

And best of all, it has a long, sunny back garden which would have stretched all the way to the water in the old days, but which now runs to a healthy one-third of an acre.
