Desirable detached home in Montenotte, Cork

Detached houses never come on the market here. That’s according to auctioneer Mark Gosling of Behan, Irwin & Gosling, who has just listed 7 Springfort, in Cork’s Montenotte with an asking price of 395,000.

Montenotte, Cork Price: €395,000

Size: 132.48 sq m

Beds: 4 Baths: 3

BER:D1

Best feature: Space for a family with great garden.

This four bedroom detached home is in a cul de sac of detached properties within walking distance of the city centre and also close to the North Ring Road, local schools and shops.

Built in 1994, the house has been really well maintained by the owners who are looking to downsize, leaving a property ready-to-go for a trader-upper.

The ground floor includes a bright, south facing living room to the front with a white marble fireplace, the lounge, also to the front and with a fireplace, and a family room.

The kitchen units are new in the kitchen / dining area which looks out over the rear garden. Last but not least on the ground floor are the utility and guest toilet.

Upstairs are four bedrooms, one en suite, and the main bathroom. While the back of the property faces north, Mark Gosling says that the long, tiered back garden still gets the sun all day.

Verdict: Three reception rooms allow great flexibility for a new owner and the location, so convenient to the city centre, will certainly have broad appeal.
