Ideal four-bed family home

DOWN in its asking price, and with offers in lower than what’s currently being quoted, No 2 Bishopscourt Avenue in Cork city’s Bishopstown is an ideal family home ready to be sold, says agent John Barry of Keane Mahony Smith.

Quoting €545,000 and seeking offers to expedite a sale, the c1,700 sq ft four-bed detached house is in the heart of the western suburb, with very good surrounding gardens, especially with a long west-facing side garden by its left hand gable. This might give extension/sun-room scope, says Mr Barry, adding “even if you put a window in the side wall here, it would flood the double reception room with light.”

That L-shaped double room is 25’ by 17’ at max measurement, and there’s another family room, a kitchen with eight-year-old fitted units, utility, WC and attached garage. Overhead are four good double bedrooms, and a dated bathroom, and there’s easy access to attic storage.
