Rare historical home is right on the riverside

THIS kind of grand and historical house is rare indeed - original windows, lovely arched doorcase and a position facing the street in Killeagh, Co Cork.

Usually when impressive townhouses like Killeagh House come on the market, they’re in thee1 million bracket, and if not, need a complete overhaul.

Not so here where this three-storey east Cork townhouse comes in at the €800,000 mark with minimal work required.
