Starter home: Carrigaline, Cork €220,000

Set in toward the end of Heatherfield in Carrigaline, by the town’s development boundary on the eastern side, is a scheme of just 10 bungalows, called The Limetrees. 

And, now, the very well-kept No 9 is new to market.

The smart three-bed of almost 1,000 sq ft was built back around 1999, and is guided at €220k by Jeremy Murphy & Associates, and has three compact bedrooms, it has a living room with wood floor and fireplace, and a country-style kitchen/diner with ash units, topped with navy tiles, and it has a Belfast sink.
