Victorian charm and harbour views

DESPITE having been built in 1850, this house had been passed on in love and affection down the years and was only put on the market for the first time less than 10 years ago.

Now completely refurbished and in move-in condition, Mount Carmel, on Cobh's High Road, is about to be sold again, through Liz Hannon of English Auctioneers, with a guide price of €675,000.

The three-storey over basement house has great views over the harbour and Whitepoint, and, as the end of a row of three, has lots of privacy and a west-facing aspect.
