Douglas home ticks all the boxes

A GOOD example of its type, the four-bedroom semi No 3 The Avenue, in Westgrove, just above Douglas in Cork on Donnybrook Hill, is a family home to tick a lot of buyers’ boxes.

About 10 years old, it has just over 1,400 sq ft of space, so nobody is going to be squeezed. It has all the signs of careful owner-occupation, is within walking distance of Douglas village and has a walled-in back garden, softened by climbing plants.

Having four bedrooms is a bonus for a family looking for that extra bit of space, and there’s one en suite bedroom, a ground-floor loo and utility, and an attached garage with the promise of room for extension. Other houses in the vicinity have extended into and over garages, as well as up into the attic space, so it’s clear there’s scope for future needs in this house model.
