 PLENTY of room for car parking at Rockbrook, a late 1990s built bungalow on a good-sized site that appears to have served some of its time past as a base for car sales.

Google Streetview images show this family home with a few dozen cars for sale parked up on one side of its grounds, left of the house and on a part-screened section but, since then, the motors have moved on, the property has changed colour and the almost 1,700 sq ft house is now looking for new hands behind the dash and wheel, so to speak.

Interior

A four-bed home built in 1997, at Birch Hill, near Grenagh and just off the N20 closer to Blarney than to Mallow, it’s listed with a €420,000 AMV via agent David Donovan of Sherry FitzGerald.

It’s on a site of over half an acre, has a west aspect to the back where there’s a large shed in a corner, and is one of a small number of one-off homes along the road in rural area, just west of the N20 Cork-Mallow/Limerick road.

In the same family’s hands since it was built in ’97, it has four double bedrooms one of which is en suite, as well as main reception which is double aspect with a fireplace and a second, smaller reception with stove off the kitchen/dining room.

Rockbrook comes in good overall order, with a C3 BER typical of its build era and is put at a ten minute spin north of Blarney, past Waterloo.

VERDICT: The spacious site, and good-sized shed with power supply to the back may allow for next owners to also have an additional business or hobby use of this family home.
