Just on the market, this three-bed semi-detached home is already attracting interest from first-time buyers, downsizers, people in other homes within the development, and from people keen to move inwards from the countryside.

No 23 Coopers Grange in Ballincollig’s Old Quarter sector is an A-rated home (hello, green mortgage rates) built by O’Flynn property developers in 2019.

Some points for the plus-side of viewers’ checklists are the bright open-plan layout, the south-facing garden, and the converted attic with its two Velux windows and laminate wood flooring.

“The attic alone brings an extra 21sq m (225sq ft) of really useful space to this home,” points out Tirza Hourihan of Sherry FitzGerald.

Two of the three bedrooms are doubles, and the main bedroom is en suite.

There’s parking in front on the cobblelock double driveway which also leads to very handy side access to the back garden which isn’t overlooked.

Some less noticeable but still useful features range from little touches like the integrated floor mat inside the front door to the heat recovery ventilation system throughout. And also the built-in understairs storage.

Integrated appliances include a Neff hob and oven, microwave, fridge freezer, washing machine, and dishwasher.

A centre island provides additional workspace and casual seating, making it ideal for everyday use and entertaining, points out Ms Hourihan.

Clever colour choices add to the feeling of light and space throughout — helped too of course by the dual-aspect dining area.

The living room has a large bay window and a solid fuel stove.

As well as all the shops, cafes, schools, and recreational facilities of Ballincollig itself there are really good public transport links close by.

And of course the Ballincollig bypass brings swift access to Bishopstown, CUH, and the city centre.

VERDICT: A modern, energy-efficient home in a very popular Ballincollig development.
