Dreamt you dwelt in Marble Hall? Now’s your chance to voice approval

FEELGOOD factor? Whatever it is in house terms, Carrigbeg has it.

You don’t even have to walk past the front door (and glimpse the highly polished original tiles) of this terraced Marble Hall home to get it, you can actually sense it from the freshly painted front gate in: heck, even the park itself has the same serene feel.

Marble Hall Park is a block-shaped cul de sac enclave with two entrances, off the start of the Douglas and Ballinlough Roads in Cork city, where the proximity to the city centre (a mile, or less) is belied by the quietness of the setting. Houses are a mix of detached, semis and some terraces – and Carrigbeg is No 2, in a terraced row of seven, with the compensating factor of rear garden access via a back lane.
