Keen-priced five-bed detached

A FIVE-BED detached house in the Douglas area of Cork for under €400,000? The reasons are several, but one is that you’ll need to do work to 11 Kingsford Park.

Many of the red-brick, Georgian-style homes in this cul de sac around a green area inside the larger Grange Heights estate are pristine, well-kept family homes. No 11, with just shy of 3,000 sq ft of space, will have to be brought back up to that status, hence its €395,000 asking price with Ann O’Mahony of Sherry FitzGerald.

There’s a good balance of space here already, with a front to back 24’ by 13’ living/dining room, opening to rear sun room, a separate kitchen/breakfast room, a family room (12’ by 9’) and an attached garage with knock-through potential, as well as a utility and guest wc.
