Two prized sites to replace Rochestown property

WORTH ‘more dead than alive’ may sum up the Rochestown Road family home of a man in the building trades profession.

Despite having upgraded and extended an old style cottage in a profile Cork junction pitch, and on good gardens, the site of his and his wife’s handiwork is likely to be knocked and replaced by two modern homes.

The property, facing up Clarke’s Hill, runs to around half an acre, and this has been carved into two c 0.27 acre sites, for which full planning permission has been granted for two closely-set replacement dwellings, with small gardens left over and parking with each property for several cars.
