Wonders worked at ground level

Extension’s open-plan design boosts appeal of house with easy commute, says Tommy Barker.

The extension to the back is fairly modest in size, but by opening up the ground floor a bit more at the same time, wonders have been worked with the ground-floor feel of 10 Deerpark Court, off Cork City’s Friars Walk.

The four-bed, semi-detached home is within an easy walk of the city centre, has a green area nearby, and is on a larger-than-standard corner site as well, notes its selling agent Johnny O’Flynn of Sherry FitzGerald.
