Starter home: Blackrock, Cork, €185,000

There’s lots of rooms up over this shop/cafe, finds Trish Dromey.     

As well as being very well renovated this two bed mid-terraced house at 6 Libertas Villas is well located near Cork’s suburban Blackrock village.

In the past a section at the front was taken out for a commercial premises, which left this house with a slightly unusual layout. But, it still has 850 sq ft of living space which includes two bedrooms as well as an attic conversion.
