Waterside bungalow in Carrigaline has permission for second storey

A BUILDER had sought to buy and reshape this Carrigaline waterside bungalow, but the sale didn’t go through, and now the original, relocating vendors are selling once more, with full planning in place on the property for a doubling in size.

The 1,300 sq ft bungalow, on a site of a third of an acre, was on the market last year seeking €600,000. Sale terms were reached at about €520,000 and planning permission granted in the interim to alter it to two-storey, with bedrooms and living areas on both the ground and first-floor levels.

It now is back up for sale with this option in place, via agent Dan Howard of Dooley and Howard, who guides it at €500,000 and who notes that the best one-off sites in Carrigaline command prices as high as €450,000, and more again for the best locations and large building options.
