Fresh sea air, a rural ambience and only a short commute to Cork city

SEA views can be had from the bedroom floor of Mansfield House, a fine, two-storey property at Crosshaven, Co Cork.

Built in the mid-80s, but with lots of mature and private grounds, this simple, but attractive two-storey is on the market at €595,000.

Seán McCarthy of ERA Downey McCarthy says there is an early offer on the property, but the size of the dwelling justifies the guide.
