Blessed are the buyers of this Ballinadee beauty

THE village with one of the most distinctive statues in Cork county, the grotto of the Blessed Virgin, Ballinadee, also has a handy location between Bandon and Kinsale.

What’s more, there are a number of beaches within a fifteen minutes drive, although that’s hardly a selling point at the moment.

The home-buyer’s dream at Rathdrought is a big one-off and it’s up for grabs for a sum in the region of €875,000.
