Bungalow has touch of luxury

IT is a bungalow from the outside, but get in past the stained glass front door and porch and you could be forgiven for thinking you were in a luxury penthouse.

Winsley, a c1950s bungalow reworked from inside out, is on an acre of grounds just a couple of miles from Bishopstown, west of Cork city. Along the final stretch of the Bandon road before the impressive arches of the Viaduct, it has a Waterfall address and a bright southerly aspect.

It was bought as a transitional home by a family with bigger building fish to fry, but they still went ahead and gutted it on purchase before their year or less in occupation.
