City centre just a stroll away

BUILT only two years ago, No 6 The Oaks is a big detached house ready, as they say, to walk into... but the real selling point is that you can walk into it all the way from the heart of Cork city, just a mile away.

The modern build, on a relatively tight suburban site, is just off the Boreenmanna Road, with location and convenience by the bucket load.

No 6, with 2,650 sq ft of living space and a fine rear high-ceilinged sun room/lounge extension with floor to ceiling glazing, is for sale with Kevin Barry of Barry Auctioneers, who seeks €925,000 for the second hand buy. This contrasts with the handful of new detached houses in O’Flynn Construction’s adjacent Bellfield Abbey scheme, where a couple of new-builds of 2,300 sq ft homes are under offer via Sherry FitzGerald at and over €1 million.
