New homes at Cork's Harper's Creek right on track

THE presence of an important wetland habitat for migratory birds by the N25 road and a commuter rail line has generated the sales and marketing motto for Cork’s latest new homes development to launch this year: Harper’s Creek invites house hunters to “Come home to Glounthaune”.

However, roosting arrivals won’t have to drop in from the skies to land at Harper’s Island, or the adjacent Harper’s Creek development of 174 homes by O’Mahony Developments, as it’s just 500m from the commuter rail station at Glounthaune.
