Perfect cottage in perfect setting

A PERFECT country cottage in a perfect country setting: that’s Rosario on Cork’s Old Mallow Road where even the name harks back to another era.

This red-brick, three-bed is about 70 or 80 years old, says Katie O’Sullivan of Thomas J O’Driscoll and Co., who’s looking for offers in the region of €530,000 for the house and site.

The setting is superb, she says, the house is located just after the One-Eyed-Bridge and is utterly private. It stands on a site of a third of an acre and is surrounded by mature trees.
