Trading up: Minane Bridge, Cork €595,000

Size: Sq m 390 (4,200 sq ft)

DONE to show house standard — and, in truth on a larger scale too — is this south county Cork home with a name that sounds like shenanigans.

Newly up for sale is this five-year-old, 4,200 sq ft dormer home called Shawnigan with masses of ground floor area, along with a detached lofted garage with two upstairs offices, plus WC. “It’s perfect for someone who wants to run a company or small business from home,” according to auctioneer Michael Piggot of Sherry FitzGerald O’Donovan Daly, in nearby Carrigaline.
