Four-bed Melrose has room for expansion

THERE’S a small number of houses in Lynbrook, so the address mightn’t ring many bells, even for house hunters in Cork’s western suburbs.

Accordingly, there’ll be a bit of curiosity about Melrose, a four-bed bungalow in this cul-de-sac opposite St Finbarr’s cemetery on the Glasheen Road within a short distance of CUH, UCC and Bon Secours, as well as the Wilton Shopping Centre. Its bungalow status makes it a rare enough offering — ideal for traders down, but with scope for a few more attic bedrooms.

A new market arrival with Brian Olden of Cohalan Downing, this detached family home has an AMV of €395,000.
