Lindville property expected tospark major buyer interest

DESPITE the €1.2 million price tag, there’ll be a queue to the door of no 4, and the price guide is likely to go out the window in just as quick a fashion.

Lindville homes are Cork’s classic trader-uppers, late 1990s homes built to a Victorian-style palette in a cracking Blackrock Road address.

With its five bedrooms, three en suites and quality fit-out, No 4 is one of the very best houses in this super-successful 60-plus residential scheme which, paradoxically, saw its builders go bust. The conventional market wisdom is that the developers allowed too many of the buyers to make too many individual changes, which bogged the whole scheme down in delays and cost-over-runs, eliminating economies of scale.
