Two up, three down at No2 The Square, Ballincollig

Tommy Barker visits a contemporary townhouse complete with basement in the heart of Ballincollig.

There’s more than meets the eye at first at the ‘contemporised’ townhouse at 2, The Mews, in the very centre of Cork’s Ballincollig — it has a large basement, over 27’ by 11’ adaptable to storage, play, gym or office uses.

A modern build with some cedar cladding on the facades and sharing an asymmetric roofline with its other half, very much giving it a 2000s vibe on the outside, No 2 is a decent-sized 1,300 sq ft two-bed townhouse (it’s 1,000 sq ft minus the basement,) with two en-suite bathrooms.
