Cnocáin Rua niche scheme

BUILT by a local and with a high-quality finish, Cnocáin Rua in Kealkil, Co Cork, is a niche scheme which is new to the market through Carmel O’Regan of SWS Property Services.

A development of just three townhouses in the quiet village, the properties are superbly finished, says the agent, and also come with one retail unit and an overhead apartment.

Close to Bantry, but also ideal for commuters to Cork city, the houses hit the market at €250,000 apiece, and come with two bedrooms and two bathrooms.

They could be used as holiday homes as they’re so near to Glengarriff and Bantry, and could also suit downsizers, says Ms O’Regan, as well as the first-time buyer.

Each units comes with good quality timber flooring, with teak risers on each staircase and private walled gardens with cobble-lock parking area.

Right in the centre of the village, they come with a lounge, fitted kitchen/dining room, one en suite bedroom, main bathroom and guest loo.
