In Cork’s elegant Rochestown

THERE’S great amenities for families in the vicinity of Foxwood, up on the higher levels of Garryduff, in Cork’s Rochestown.

A new national school opened last year, there’s a huge range of sporting facilities, including all-weather pitches and pitch and putt, in the Garryduff complex — and then there are the great public woodland trails and walks covering a swathe of hillside beyond, but little known outside the vicinity.

Well-placed in any buyer’s book is number 55, Foxwood, a four-bedroomed, semi-detached with agent, Conor Smith, of Property Team O’Sullivan. He seeks €355,000 for number 55, which was built by O’Brien and O’Flynn in the 1990s, and which is in very good condition, in a cul de sac.
