Trading Up: Monkstown, Cork Harbour, €495,000
An updated and extended split-level family home, with wood-clad first floor extension on one end, this is now a sizeable four-bed property, notes its selling agent Michael Pigott, who adds there’s “a great blend of both living and bedroom accommodation with the living quarters and a large balcony on the first floor in order to appreciate and capture the amazing views.”
Diamond Hill is a sort of zig-zag development of popular, detached houses a walk via Chapel Hill to Monkstown village and there are three off to one side, away from the other two tiers, and Lisard’s one of this trio, with private gardens and decked areas. Resales are rare: No 15 sold four years ago for €320,000, according to the Price Register.
On its approach, Lisard looks like a bungalow.
Its entry level hosts the living quarters and kitchen, and the bedrooms are below, with a tall, view-expanding window on the oak staircase at the back.
Rooms include an updated kitchen with granite topped units and island, dining area opening to the sit-out balcony.
Overall condition is excellent, says Mr Pigott, and the BER’s a very respectable C2: the selling agent says the views will be a clincher for, well, for No 3’s viewers.
