The View a sought-after city location

THIS is the kind of property that doesn’t stay on the market very long — even in this market, according to Jeremy Murphy who says the View in Donnybrook is a sought-after location in this southern Cork city suburb.

Detached, no 12 is on the market at €480,000. It’s a clean buy in that nothing needs to be done.

A fine house, it comes with decent living space and a large corner site, with lovely, kiddie-style back gardens, including a fenced play area — handy.

The main and formal living room is 17’ by 14’ with a real, old fireplace, (200 years old, according to Murphy), wooden floors and a tasteful layout.

The kitchen/diner is also big at 24’ by 14’ and has country pine units, Belfast sink and good steel appliances with slate flooring. A patio door leads to the back garden. Also included is a separate utility and guest bathroom.

There are four bedrooms, three doubles and a single, with master en suite and main bathroom.
