Well-placed homes selling fast

Fernhill Woods is an 44-house scheme off the Western road in Clonakilty, Co Cork, and is close to the new Dunnes Stores shopping centre and the bypass road. So popular is Clon that prices are on a par with Cork city, and in this scheme, townhouses start at €312,000.

And the demand has been huge, says selling agent, Henry O’Leary, of Property Partners, Henry O’Leary, who has just five houses left in a release of 20 units. These three to four bed semis and town houses have generous proportions ranging from 1,142 square feet to 1,350 and there is one townhouse left with 1,300 square feet of space, says the agent.
