Splash out on the gallop

WHEN they were first built 15 years ago, the houses in The Paddocks on Maryborough Hill were probably the best new homes in Cork. Now, the biggest of the bunch and quite probably the best of them, is up for sale by its original owners who are trading even further up the residential ladder.

Splash out on the gallop

They are selling for €1.6 million, but have spent well over that buying a primely-positioned period home elsewhere in Cork’s suburbs, which is just finishing a multi-million euro restoration and extension.

That ‘best’ in The Paddocks claim is one neighbours in this fairly exclusive enclave might wish to contest. But given that No 17 was built day one to a far larger building footprint and has an interior that shows no sign of pennies ever being watched, it certainly is the leading contender.
