Ready and waiting near the city

DONE up from top to bottom in the last few years, Mount Rivers is a ready made move-in job for anybody in the house-hunting game.

The location is over looking the River Lee at the western end of Sunday’s Well Road, near Wellington Bridge, still a smart walk to Cork city centre and an easy stroll to UCC.

The mid-terraced house is the guts of a century old, but has had more than a cosmetic make-over to freshen it up for a new set of owners. The builders came in and did a gut job and replaced plasterwork, wiring and plumbing, with gas central heating installed, a couple of years ago, while the woman who drove the project adapted the living areas so that the best views are from the living rooms on the ground and first floors.
