Semi-detached Number 6 Marwood Close is a four-bedroom house in Glanmire’s Marwood development. It’s attractively decorated throughout with a crisp navy and white classic modern open-plan kitchen/ dining area. The rose-gold drawer and cupboard handles pick up the warm colour of the herringbone flooring.

This house last sold in 2015 for €275,000. Since then the current owners have upgraded the overall decor and most
significantly carried out a big kitchen/ dining revamp in 2021, knocking an internal wall and adding a peninsula breakfast bar.

They’re now moving ‘home’ to the Montenotte area for easier schools and sports clubs access: “If we could have brought the house with us we would as we have been very happy with it.”

The real tests of the capacity of the revamped downstairs were a few parties including one attended by nearly 30 teenage friends of the owners’ daughter. “It was a summer evening — we got a fab photo of them all from out the upstairs window,” says the owner.

There’s a downstairs loo just by the front door and the utility room is under the stairs but accessible from the kitchen. The main bedroom is en suite with a bay window.

The small green to the front of the house has seen many games of soccer over the years: “It was great to have a quiet cul-de-sac when the kids were outside.” There’s a side gate to the south-facing rear of the property which is divided between patio and grass.

Included in the sale are integrated appliances — cooker, dishwasher, fridge freezer, double oven, and hob.

Selling agent, Paul Fenton of Sherry FitzGerald, expects this house to primarily attract first-time buyers and has recently sold another four-bedroom house in the same estate for €446,000.

VERDICT: A family-ready home with plenty of room for parties and barbecues.
