Orchard sites allow for fruitful growth

A PLUM garden site on which to build, in one of Cork city’s best western suburbs, Orchard Road is for sale. It comes new to market, just as rival and adjoining sites across Cork city on a former crab apple orchard also get a renewed sales push (see below).

Set to be the first house on Orchard Road, entering from College Road, the site is the mature, tended and landscaped side garden of a large detached home on College Road, just west of UCC’s medical campus, main campus, Bon Secours hospital and Brookfield student accommodation, hotel and leisure centre.

It has full planning permission secured by the vendor (who owns the main dwelling and gardens) for a 1,630 sq ft, four-bed, two storey home.
