Hurler on the border

A HOP across the river Blackwater and the county boundary from Waterford to Cork for work reasons brings this very nicely extended Kilmacthomas family home to market.

Built in 2001 by a former Co Waterford hurling star and selector (but publicity shy!) it was later extended again to the back and side around 2007, with a slick, extensively glazed sun room with high ceilings.

Set at Carroll’s Cross near Kilmeaden and just off the N2 Cork-Waterford road, it is a new-to-market listing with agent Margaret Harty in Dungarvan, who is seeking offers around €385,000.
