Moving on: House site ready to roll

THE chance to move to an exceptional, wooded and walled-in private site on which to build a dream home has cropped up on Cork city’s Gardiner’s Hill.

Already, a family has built one exceptional contemporary home on a secluded adjacent site: they’re now selling a surplus 0.39 acre serviced site with full planning permission for a four-square 280 sq m/3,000 sq ft three-storey home on it.

The symmetrical house design (with side garage) has a central hall with good family space ranged around it, with scope for up to four bedrooms apiece on each of the next two floors, with five bathrooms to serve the eight in total bedrooms.

Selling agent Timothy Sullivan guides the Foxwood, Gardiner’s Hill site at €250,000

VERDICT: Go build.
