Spacious home is good value

THIS Regency-style redbrick, one of only a dozen or so in a quiet enclave off Grange Hill, Cork, is back on the market, following its withdrawal last year.

This time round, 18, Kingsford Park has a more attractive guide price of €700,000 and it’s good value at that, says selling agent, Tom Woodward.

Fully renovated and with upgraded insulation levels, the property will appeal to trader-uppers looking for a base in the greater Douglas area.

Elegant, and with substantial space, according to Tom Woodward, the property has an attached garage which would allow conversion and extension.

However, the house has ample space as it stands with a big living/dining room on the ground floor, a family room on the opposite side and a large kitchen/breakfast room.

The utility room is a generous size and connects to the garage and the back garden.

The upper level has a master bedroom with slide robes, a large ensuite and the remaining four bedrooms all come with built-in units, while the fifth bedroom could double as a study. The attic also offers lots of storage space.

Gardens are mature and not overlooked at the rear and wrap around the house, offering good privacy.

Big trees, lots of shrubs and good parking are some of the attractions and the house is close the South Ring network.

According to Tom Woodward, the vendors are moving to west Cork and have pitched no 18 at a price they hope will result in a quick sale.

Woodward Auctioneers are the agents to contact.
