Selling agents Cohalan Downing say No 20 Greenhills Court off Cork’s South Douglas Road needs a bit of love and attention. Truth be told, it needs a bit more;new windows, heating and a decor upgrade. But the price guide is €115,000, so many buyers will have extra funds to make their own mark.

It has gardens front and back.
