Great garden at Croaghtamore

THERE’S a smashing back garden with this house at 11, Croaghtamore Gardens, on Upper Pouladuff Road in Cork and it has plenty room for an extension at the back.

This handily-located property is in “very good condition”, says Dan Howard of Dooley and Howard, and he’s looking for offers over €375,000 for the three-bed semi.

Within walking distance of Cork city, and crucially close to UCC, this house could be bought by investors, but with the advent of the Section 50 student blocks, there may be a chance for trader-inners with this one.

Moving back to town from the outer suburbs is the aim of a lot of second-time buyers.

It has an interconnecting living and kitchen/dining room, a ground floor bathroom.

The garden is a step up from the patio area at the back, is surrounded by mature trees and is very private. The upper floor has three bedrooms and a bathroom.
