Model Farm Road original bungalow in prime western suburbs spot

House values vary widely - and wildly - along Cork’s Model Farm Road, running just west of the city suburbs from Dennehy’s Cross right out towards Ballincollig.

They’ve recently enough ranged from the modest, right up to €1.3/1.5 million, even during the past few years of downturn, given its enduring locational appeal. A house on two acres directory across the road from Duncearma sold back in depressed 2010 for close to €1.4m – and was knocked, replaced by a large contemporary energy efficient new home– a different world from this more modest €450,000 market offer.

Agent Michael O’Mahony of O’Mahony Properties has the 2,150 sq ft bungalow Duncearma, with five bedrooms, newly on his books for its owners, on a half acre site just beyond the hill up from Inchigaggin Lane, and with the setting, size and location, he should be busy with eager viewings.
