Anningdale bungalow ticks right boxes

BEDS to the left, bright living areas to the right, and the city down the hill: that’s Anningdale, in a nutshell.

The crisp and smart older style bungalow is on a one-third acre site just up over the top of Spur Hill, heading out from Wilton over the back of Cork’s Airport Hill towards Ballinhassig.

Its owner is trading down, and despite the house being several decades old, it is in pretty much walk-in condition, well kept and with gardens which will come on beautifully with spring in the air.

Selling agent for Anningdale is Jarlath Boyd of Savills, who seeks offers around €399,000 (down from last year’s AMV of €525,000,) not bad value at all for a such a package, with a country setting on the edge: less than five minutes in a car to Sarsfield Road, Wilton Shopping centre and to the south ring road.

The main or largest of the reception rooms is the 20’ by 12’ sitting room, with sloping parana pine-clad ceiling and other rooms like the living room and family room also have pitched ceilings, giving an extra airiness.
