A green to the front and a neat-as-a pin garden to the rear give two nicely different ways of enjoying the outdoors from 39 Fernwood in Glanmire.

This four-bed semi-detached home has a bright front room directly overlooking a green area. Double doors lead from this south-facing room on into the open-plan kitchen/dining area which also has double doors bringing you to a sheltered patio areaperfect for a quiet cuppa or spot of sudoku.

A separate utility room with a door out to the side of the house all contributes to keeping this home functioning smoothly.

Upstairs, three of the four bedrooms are doubles and the main one, also south-facing, has an ensuite bathroom and built-in wardrobes. The single bedroom to the front would work as a child’s room, a guest room, or home office.

Built in 2007, this home was bought off the plans by the current owner and it has been well-maintained since. She says: “The area has really settled nicely over the past two decades and the house is very private — I love the open plan layout downstairs and the aspect of the house.... the front room is my favourite spot as it’s so bright and still serene.”

Selling agent Paul Fenton of Sherry FitzGerald notes that the house “is very convenient to schools, crèches, a shopping centre, cafés, bars, and restaurants, churches, bus stops and is within easy reach of the Dunkettle Interchange, Northern Ring Road and Cork City”.

VERDICT: A bright four-bed with good flow between rooms will be a popular family choice.
