Standard bungalow, but the views are fantastic

THE name is unintentionally ironic - Costa Villa now costs-a-plenty at the guide price of €690,000.

And with respect to inhabitants of the low-slung home, it’s just your bog-standard bungalow. So why the price?

Two words: Camden Road. One of most salubrious addresses in a quiet, Crosshaven, (the Co Cork village that doesn’t have a petrol pump), it has the most magnificent views of Crosshaven harbour and Currabinny. You’d forget how gorgeous this part of the coast is until you view it from this house’s site on a crisp, blue morning.
