Elden apartments in different class

HOVERING above the trees on Cork’s Maryborough Hill is the just-launching apartment scheme Elden — including five upmarket penthouses looking down on centuries’ old woodland and the Lee estuary.

The development of 45 large units comes after the completion of 29 contemporary-style houses at Elden, previously the site of one dated family home on five valuable acres.

Showhouses for the two- and three-bed units (990 to 2,020 sq ft) open this afternoon 2 to 4 pm, and on Thursday night, and given the location and quality, pricing is extremely keen...from €350,000 up to €730,000, reflecting today’s struggling market.
