Step up to a great family home

THIS is a smashing opportunity for trader-uppers in Cobh, says auctioneer, Liz English, because number 4, Grove Gardens is barely built and in superb condition.

It’s just one of six houses in a private cul-de-sac close to Rushbrooke primary school and its layout makes it perfect for families, she adds.

“Sites close by here have hit €400,000 recently and you wouldn’t build this house at that price. The site is lovely too, as it’s surrounded by beautiful old trees,” she adds.

The guide price is in the region of €715,000, and that compares favourably with town prices, Ms English says. The house also comes with 600 sq ft of undeveloped attic space.

It’s tastefully decorated and comes with a big kitchen and connecting family room with bay window and solid fuel stove. There’s a conservatory of 15’ by 11’, an en-suite bedroom which doubles as a playroom, and a sitting room.

The master bedroom is en suite and there are three other bedrooms and a main bathroom with corner bath and separate shower cubicle.

The house has gas heating and there is also a detached garage.
