Auctioneera is delighted to present 19 Saint Finbarr's Park, Glasheen in Cork City.
19 Saint Finbarr's Park is a unique and charming 3-bedroom semi-detached house in a quiet residential area overlooking one of Cork City’s most treasured amenities, the Lough- a small lake popular for nature walking and recreation and a protected wildlife sanctuary since 1881.
Built in the 1950s, this recently renovated house is turnkey for those seeking a modern and spacious home. The property boasts an impressive B3 energy rating, allowing the buyers to qualify for a ‘green mortgage’. The large open-plan kitchen/family area includes an extension that opens out onto the patio and is flooded with natural light throughout the day from front and rear large windows.
Upon entering the property, you will notice the view through the internal glass doors of the garden and the Lough beyond. The stained-glass front door opens onto a charming hallway featuring original 1950s mosaic floor tiles. The spacious living room features full-length glass windows and a large sliding door opening onto the patio ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining.
The kitchen is modern and fully equipped with a kitchen island, large Belfast sink, all necessary appliances as well as ample storage space. Connected to the kitchen using bespoke bi-fold doors, is an impressive dining room (currently being used as an office) with a large bay window to the front. A fully fitted desk is also located off the kitchen offering an ideal home-office workspace.
Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms, each offering plenty of natural light and storage space. The master bedroom with en-suite bathroom is particularly spacious and boasts an expansive view of the Lough and garden below. There is a large family bathroom and utility room with laundry and storage.
The attic, accessed via an attic stairs from the utility, is an ideal size for conversion.
Externally, the property features a private driveway to the front providing off-street parking and a beautifully landscaped garden to the back. A partially covered patio provides the perfect space to sit and take in the views year-round. The lake view is framed by a large mature apple tree (yielding approximately 200 eating apples per year) with a beautiful tree house built less than a year ago.
This property offers a peaceful retreat while still being close to all the amenities of city living. The city centre is a short 15-minute walk, and University College Cork, the Bons Secours Hospital, and Cork University Hospital are all within easy walking distance.
