Makeover a real winner

WHERE would you find a three-bed, detached house with parking in the flat of the city?

Man’s Lane, that’s where. Just under Rock Cottages on Cork’s North Mall, this little lane is of the blink and you’ve missed it variety, and its narrow approach is part of the medieval heritage of the city.

But no 5/6 is not medieval in style; in fact, it’s an eighties rebuild with a noughties makeover. And what a makeover. First off, it’s hard to believe a house of this quality could be tucked away like it is, but still just a minute’s walk to town.
