Trading up: Glounthaune, Cork. €350,000

All on the one level, this wide bungalow home with adjacent double garage/carport, faces south across the inner estuary of Cork harbour, so the vista’s expansive, taking in water, slob, land and sky — lots of it.
Inside, Weatherly has about 2,100 sq ft of living space, and that’s a sizeable footprint for most families. If ever there was a chance to build up into the attic, this would be a whopper.
