Upgraded semi-d has a new look

No 56 Wilton Gardens has a high standard of finish, Tommy Barker reports

JUST about everything — bar an extension — has been done to the three-bed semi-d at 56, Wilton Gardens in Cork. Now in mint order, the mid-1900s-built house still has its original 1,135 sq ft of living space, but it’s all been tidied up and upgraded. Hence, it has been underpinned, its external walls have been insulated, it has a new kitchen (hand-painted units, marble tops, Belfast sink, etc) linked across the back of the house to a dining room, it has been rewired, has new wood floors and carpets, bathrooms have been done top to toe, with a shower room at ground level, and it has all been decorated.

And, it’s all for €285,000, within reach of the better-off FTB’s, via agents Frank V Murphy & Co
