There’s lots of reasons to splash out on this split-level bungalow

WITH its terraced swimming pool a bit like you’d find alongside a Mediterranean villa, a Fermoy, Co Cork, home is aimed at a post-global warming, climate-conscious client.

There’s lots of reasons to splash out on this split-level bungalow

The split-level bungalow, wedged into a sloping site, was built a couple of decades ago and the vendors later added on a 12-metre outdoor swimming pool heated, you might be glad to know in case our Irish climate returns to form.

Intending buyers keen for a three-quarter acre bite at the great outdoors will have to splash out a price in the region for €350,000 for this home, on the market with Brendan O'Meara in Fermoy, who are acting jointly with Hamilton Osborne King in Cork city.

Architect-designed, the house has three bedrooms, one with shower, another with a wash basin, but the real water attraction is the pool, done in a vaguely Italian style, with bow-end and surrounding sloped terrace.

The lower portion of the house has a 18' by 10' garage, as well as a laundry room which doubles up as a changing room for pool users.

Overhead, the main rooms include a lounge with brick fireplace, a reception/dining room, 25' by 12', with sliding door to a compact conservatory, and kitchen with oak units and garden access, as well as three bedrooms plus main bathroom.

Location is a mile from Fermoy at Ileclash, a 20 to 30 minute drive from Cork city with the Watergrasshill bypass expediting the journey.

The property has good privacy, with mature gardens on three-quarters of an acre, has double glazing, oil heating and alarm, and several roms have wood floors.
