House of the week: Kinsale, Co Cork €750,000

There’s more storeys and stories than meets the eye at the fabulous old Kinsale town centre building, 28 Lower O’Connell St.

Owned for a few decades by a New York-based individual with an eye for art and architecture, it comes for sale described as a three-storey over-basement terraced home, but, in truth, it’s far, far more than that.

A well-preserved Georgian townhouse, it has accommodation over five (and a half) levels, including lower ground level, attic level, and mezzanine. And not one level is scant.
