Farmhouse with great potential

A FINE, century-old farmhouse once part of a large 180-acre productive holding has come up for sale on 1.4 acres, complete with grove of trees and a grass tennis court.

On the Glanworth road a mile from picturesque Ballyhooly in the Blackwater valley region, Woodview is a solid, two-storey house of about 2,500 sq ft , with lots of original features, but now also in need of modernisation.

It is new to the market with locally-rooted but Fermoy-based estate agent Jim McCarthy, who describes the home as substantial and characterful.
