Penthouse size apartment ideal for couple

SIZE is the surprise at The Helm, a conversion job of a former hotel site to 10 or 12 apartments.

Done about five years ago, the development is at Weaver’s Point, a mile or two from Crosshaven and on the outer rim of Cork harbour with sea, Cobh/harbour and Roches Point views.

A price of €380,000 is now attached to apartment no 7, a duplex unit with a surprising 1,400 sq ft of space - penthouse in proportion, even if it is on the lower section of the building.
