Clanricard, generous site, quite, reduced

A REALLY quiet location off Cork’s Blackrock road and a generous site, makes no 14 Clanricard a good bet for first or second-time buyers.

Sandwiched between Boreenmanna and Blackrock road, the house is a classic, three-bed semi, which, while it needs modernisation, is in good condition.

It’s on the market with Cohalan Downing for offers in the region of €425,000 — a much lower price than two years ago.

It has one careful owner since it was built in 1955. It has plenty of space to the side and rear for an extension and best of all, it’s not overlooked.

In fact, it bounds Clanricard House at the rear, formerly the home of the Love family and now a remodelled and very upmarket family home.

The property has an entrance hall, with guest WC; a living room, sitting room and kitchen with original fireplace. There are two double bedrooms, a box room and bathroom.
