Starter homes: Light up your life at Glanmire home

Location: Glanmire, Cork

Live life in colour, seems to be the motto of the owners of 32 Heathervue, a Glanmire mid-terraced home with a refreshingly bright and breezy approach to decor.

How brave are you? Brave enough to take the doors off your kitchen cupboards, and let your colourful crockery, teapots and food in Kilner jars do the talking, and the tempting, for mealtimes? That’s what’s in pride of place view here at 32, and it works.

Spots of colours are dotted throughout this c 900 sq ft home with charm, even the shed and garden fence are painted in various shades, as are kitchen chairs, occasional tables, shelves, standard lights and more.

The front room has a mini-bay window, and ornate fireplace painted white, and behind is a kitchen/ dining room running the full width of the house Overhead the main bedroom is en suite, and outside the house has an easy-keep, south-facing back garden.

Agent Michael O’ Donovan of Sherry FitzGerald say No 32 is in good overall condition, with a homely feel.

VERDICT: Positive energy and personality.
