Window of opportunity near sea

THERE is phenomenal interest in this property at Mounteen, Ballinascarthy, says it’s selling agent, Henry O’Leary of Property Partners Henry O’Leary, and viewings are being held daily.

The rundown farmhouse may look very faded, (it hasn’t been lived in for at least seven years), but its simplicity is the key — that and a lovely, pastoral location with a fast-running stream as a boundary.

Facing south over a newly-reseeded field, it with four acres and can be sold with or without the full acreage, says O’Leary, depending on demand, and of course, bidding. “The extra land and maturity will guarantee a return in the long run — the likes of it are pretty scarce. It needs to be renovated — but the roof was replaced fairly recently and the walls look perfect.”
