House and site set for builders’ eyes

Bishopstown property is a 1970s relic but renovators will relish the chance to extend this already sizeable home, says Tommy Barker.

Almost a design timepiece of its 1970s roots is Courtville, a detached family home of nearly 2,500 sq ft, with an assymetric pitched roof, on a large triangular site of 0.57 of an acre, in the heart of Cork’s Bishopstown, at Rossa Avenue.
