Two-bed detached dormer ticks the boxes for single person or couple

No 1 Westway is going to be easy to maintain, and the gardens are fringed by high walls for privacy. Tommy Barker takes a look at this modern cottage at Grange Manor, Ovens.

WELL-kept, this two-bed dormer at Cork’s Grange Manor, Ovens, is a neat buy for a single person, or for a couple. The detached dormer, on a wedge-shaped walled-in site, is for sale with Niamh Moloney of Sherry FitzGerald in Cork City, whose beat primarily covers properties west of the city, and this place is just a few miles west of Ballincollig’s bypass.

There’s 850 sq ft in all here at 1 Westway, so it’s none too huge, with one ground floor bedroom, a front-to-back kitchen/living room to the right of the hall, there’s a ground floor WC, and overhead is one large bedroom, 18’ by 12’ with wall of Sliderobes, with decent-sized main bathroom.
