Trading Up: Maryborough/Rochestown, Cork €385,000 

FOR those prepared to roll up their sleeves and do a bit of updating and upgrading, No 34 Limetrees Road holds lots of promise.

Dating from the mid 1900s, this four-bed semi-d is set off the Douglas end of the Rochestown Road, near the foot of Maryborough Hill and close to two hotels, as well as to the ring road, and to all of Douglas’s services.

With a south-facing back garden, and off-street parking with adjacent garage and boiler house, No 34 is fresh to market, but is dated internally, and carries a €385,000 asking price via agent Stephen Clarke of REA O’Donoghue Clarke.
