Potential at greenbelt bungalow

AT the asking price of €285,000, this detached bungalow on the Curraheen Road in Cork is not bad value, considering its potential.

Facing onto the main road, with access to the south ring at one end and Bishopstown on the other, Breffni is well-placed.

However, it will need a few bob spent, says TJ Cronin of Irish and European, but there’s plenty of space for an extension, he adds.

The gardens are generous and because of the location at the edge of the city’s greenbelt, there are countryside views too.

The bungalow has the standard three-bed layout, with two receptions, a kitchen and main bathroom, but with this type, there’s room in the attic for a fourth bedroom or study.

As a project, it could be a good bet and with the market the way it is at the moment, there’s also room to negotiate.
