Period living with urban edge

Red-brick terrace charm, cathedral views and reasonably priced too, Tommy Barker reports

PICTURE pretty Cork city northside views come with the red-brick house 4 Motor Villas, one of just five similar, period-era homes off Pope’s Road, near Murphy’s Brewery in Lady’s Well.

A summer market arrival with agent Michael Downey of ERA Downey McCarthy, it’s a three-storey, three bed house with some charm, and a decent offering at €155.000 (No 2 in the terrace, a four-bed is available via Redfords for €169,000).
