Pick up a Buttevant semi for a bargain at €99,000

HE tried selling them in bulk a year ago and now auctioneer Johnny Ryan is going the tried and tested, ‘Dunnes Stores’ pricing route for Town Heights — selling the Buttevant semis for €99,000 each.

Following on last week’s sale of Mullingar apartments for less than €90,000, Ryan is hoping the same approach will shift the three completed, (and award-winning units) left in the Town Heights estate in Buttevant, north Cork, midway between Cork and Limerick.

Although on a rail line, the train doesn’t stop here, so it’s mostly for car commuters who’d like to pay less than €400 per month for a place on which to lay their heads.
