Suburban home with panoramic vista

A COUPLE of one-off house sites ‘suggested’ themselves back when the Copper Hill new homes scheme was being built in Cork’s Ballintemple village in the mid-1990s.

One of the results is Ardcairn Lodge, a detached house at the high end of the Copper Hill development. Its elevated setting has views of the suburban village below sporadic greenery, the Marina, showgrounds and Pairc Ui Chaoimh and across the River Lee to Tivoli.

Carrying a €575,000 price guide with agent Timothy Sullivan, Ardcairn Lodge looks bigger than it really is, thanks to its extra width.
