Country location with fast access to city

STANDING high over the Shournagh Valley, this four-bed bungalow at Springmount, Carrigrohane, Co Cork, has the ideal mix of country location with fast access to Cork city.

Houses here come up for sale rarely which explains the guide price of €485,000 through joint agents, Michael Downey of ERA Downey McCarthy and Brendan Bowe of Bowe Auctioneers Ballincollig.

A 1970s build, this is a substantial four-bed south-facing house with underground garage space. Bounded by farmland, the back garden is a level and mature rectangle.
