Kinsale townhouse ideal for those looking for a instant move-in option

With fascinating views and just a few minutes’ walk from the town-centre, No 2 Castle Desmond offers the perfect investment or ideal first-time home, reports Tommy Barker

Kinsale’s No 2, Castle Desmond really is a townhouse in the true sense of the word — the fascinating views from the back balcony are over myriad rooftops, out over back yards and slender threading roads of this ancient seaport, a pure town living panorama.

The c 15-year-old terraced home with a bit of a twist is open to offers around the €165,000 mark via Sherry FitzGerald Brennan Busteed. It is being offered furnished, so it’s an instant move-in proposition if a buyer wants an easy transition, and perhaps, with a mix of older style and a bit of scope to it — such as an L-shaped living/dining room/kitchen, with an outdoor walled terrace or balcony off it down a few steps, with enough space to sit out and eat at.
