In cul-de-sac near playing fields

SET out at the far, suburban-end of the Boreenmanna Road, in Cork city, is Corvalley Court – with the rugby playing pitches of Cork Constitution behind, and the GAA pitch at Pairc Uí Rinn (Christy Ring) almost alongside.

Up for sale in the 20-plus-year-old development is number six, a semi-detached house with 950 sq ft of space, said to be in good overall condition, and carrying an asking price of €265,000, with estate agent Conor Smith, of Property Team O’Sullivan Estates.

He says it is in a quiet cul de sac, with a south-facing back garden with a view of some of Cork Con’s three playing pitches: the tranquillity just might be broken for a period on the odd Saturday morning.
