Quirky house in leafy Cork suburb would suit a colourful character

IT could be in west Cork, with its mad, fuchsia-coloured walls outside.

On a sunny day, it could be some Italian hideaway. However, this house and its hidden, productive gardens is in a venerable, hilly Cork city suburb.

Number four, Lower Janemount, is a Sunday’s Well hideaway, a tree-glade above the rattle and hum of Sunday’s Well and the city, a spot found and favoured a decade or so ago by New Zealander, Bridget Healy, and chef Denis Cotter, of the Cafe Paradiso restaurant.
