A keen seller puts The Gables within reach

A MOVE Down Under has brought The Gables, in Cork’s Glanmire, to the market, where a buyer might make profitable use of the summer lull.

The property was sale-agreed around its €595,000 price guide at the start of summer, but the deal didn’t close; now agent ERA Downey McCarthy Murphy has dropped the guide to offers over €550,000, firmly fitting the ‘keen seller’ mould. ’

Built in 1975 on more than half-an-acre in super-popular Castlejane, a two-minute walk from Glanmire’s heart, this is a split-level and detached five-bedroom home which is highly adaptable.
