Jaded suburbanites will find lots of appeal in Ballylickey purchase

SMART, contemporary decor and some top of the range fittings, make 10, Riverview a good buy down Bantry way.

Part of a new development of detached houses at Pearson’s Bridge, Ballylickey, you couldn’t get a more beautiful environment in which to live. So, this house will appeal, not only to the local buyer, but to jaded urbanites looking to move out of the capital, or the real capital. Selling in the city and moving down to the sea makes sense financially, especially when this house costs just e475,000 for 2,100 square feet — a big drop from city prices.

Spick and span and almost brand new, no 10 Riverveiw is a turnkey job, says Carmel O’Regan of SWS Property Services, adding that it also comes with south-facing, landscaped grounds.

And it also has all mains services, oil heating and, best of all, broadband.

Rooms on the ground floor include a sitting room, with oak floor, a maple kitchen with attached dining room, (divided by an island with breakfast bar), a utility; lounge with corner fireplace and a conservatory with double doors to the garden.

The upper level has four double bedrooms, a main bathroom and ensuite master: there’s also a guest WC at ground floor level.

Close to bustling Bantry town, with its fabby Friday market, the area is ideal for families going up or down.
