Old-fashioned but full of potential and with glorious harbour views

Tangan house would suit those on the hunt for a holiday home, Tommy Barker reports

Sure, it’s a bit old-fashioned, but you can see the potential — plus everything else that you can see.

The compact house Tangan, on Crosshaven’s Lower Point Rd, has the full sweep of the widest parts of Cork harbour in full frontal view, over to Spike, Haulbowline, and Great Island/Cobh. This time of year there’s never a shortage of activity to track on the wonderful water amenity. With sailors swamping Cork harbour as part of Cork Week, the auctioneer’s sales board for Tangan cleverly points out to sea, not to the road behind.
