Try a sunny nook

KILLINEAR is one of several detached homes in Sun Nook Park, off Cork's Boreenmanna Road — a quiet, cul de sac on the fringe of the city centre.

Although extended in the past and in good condition, the house could sustain another bout of doer-upmanship, says Sonya Irwin of James G Coughlan and Associates and it’s on offer at €450,000.

The house comes with a lounge, family room/dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms and a bathroom.
