Lower price for substantial period property

A MOVE to a city selling agent, plus a price drop, may bring some fresh viewings eyes to Mount Lodge, a quite genuine 5,000 sq ft period home near Enniskeane, west Cork.

The vendor, a Reiki master who has used it both as a home and a healing centre, had this over lower-ground level villa up for sale last year with SWS Property Services, when it had a €1.35 million price guide.

Since, SWS Property Services has folded its tent and many of its former auctioneers are trading under new firms and names, but as summer 2010 comes around, the appointed agent now for Mount Lodge is Lucy Wolfe in Cork city, who seeks offers close to €975,000.
