Prime city pad on track

With a mix of old and new, No 148 Lower Glanmire Road, Cork, has a lot going for it, writes Tommy Barker.

UPGRADING works done to this terraced home came in two stages, in the early 2000s, and again in 2008 — and what links the two blasts of investment is mindful good taste.

Now, as the city pad No 148 on Cork’s Lower Glanmire Road comes up for sale, guiding €189,000, a new owner is getting a ready-made job, a period era place near the rail station and city centre, with all mod cons and a great rear extension which is the surprise making of the place.
