House of the Week: Ballymore, Cobh, €369,000
You could sit here all day and all night, looking out at the 180-degree vista over Cork harbour.....or you can run out the door and down on the roads as did local Cobh legend, Olympian and former world champion, Sonia O’Sullivan.
O’Sullivan started her running career with Ballymore AC, just east of the hilly harbour town of Cobh, and the roads here and past Cuskinny are all uphill and down dale. They’d keep you fit. As would the many walks on Great Island, from the 22km island loop, or to the woods and shoreline at Marloag, or along the ‘21 Ditches’ walk from Cuskinny to Marloag, encompassing beaches and bays.
