You can tell from its stone and red brick windowless frontage, that No 23 The Mews, River Towers on the Lee Road is a little bit different from your average two-bed end of terrace house.

It is part of a mews development of just 23 houses which was created in the 1990s from 1880s-built stone outbuildings that once belonged to Our Lady’s Hospital.

“With its brick and stone façade it’s charming and a little unusual," says Katie Fennessy of Sherry FitzGerald seeking offers of €255,000.

Bought by current owners in 2020, the 80 sq metre property is well maintained and well located within 2.5km from UCC and 3.5 km from the city centre.

“The owners bought it as their first home and are now ready to trade up," reveals Ms Fennessy adding that recent improvements have included kitchen and bathroom renovations.

Downstairs the property has an open-plan living dining room with an electric wall-hung fire, two large rear windows, and a set of double doors. Off this is a small kitchenette with modern green units while the upstairs has a bathroom and two bedrooms, one en suite.

The property has a small enclosed yard and a designated parking space.

“It would be ideal for a first-time buyer or a downsizer and since it doesn’t have a rent cap will also appeal to investors," says Ms Fennessy.

VERDICT: Affordable and move-in ready.
