Trading up: Douglas, Cork €330,000

Sq m: 155 (1,660 sq ft)

What with its big skirts of ground floor extension — front, side and towards the back, the semi-d at 8, Rathmore Lawn is going to fit the buying bill for a good cross-section of home hunters.

Factor in the current shortage of housing stock in pretty much all market sectors, and — well — viewings should be spirited at this 1,660 sq ft home in inner Douglas.
