House of the week

Pared down minimalism is all very well, but when the cold bites, we do love a cosy fire, a warm sitting room, and a house that wraps itself around you.

And that’s what’s you get at 82 The Lawn, Coolroe Meadows, Ballincollig, Co Cork — a house that’s at the right end of cosy, but fresh and bright too for spring.

According to it’s selling agent, Andrea Whelan of Sherry FitzGerald, the house as a sort of ‘New England’ aesthetic and she hopes it will wow the viewers at her ‘Open House’ viewing today, Saturday, from 12pm to 1pm.
