Where Fin Barre taught, let Munster investors earn

WHERE Fin Barre taught let Munster earn could be the wry take on a new Section 50 development on College road, called Fuller’s Lodge.

Starting at €350,000 and rising to €450,000 for 900 square foot units, these are some of the most expensive apartments on offer in purpose-built student accommodation in the city.

So far, between 2,500 and 3,000 student bed spaces have been applied for in Cork and the cut-off point for the scheme was at the end of September last. The local authorities are now finalising applications on the tail-end schemes, which also have to go through a registration procedure with third-level institutes in the city.
