It’s a huge opportunity for an investor.

The Chorister’s House on Dean Street in Cork city is on the market again at €2.5m.

The property hit the headlines last year when tenants were handed eviction notices by their landlord ahead of necessary renovation works to the building, leaving many scrambling for accommodation.

Now that the work has been completed, the property is back on the market and likely to attract significant interest.

Listed with Barry Auctioneers, the handsome limestone-fronted building is split up into 25 unique one-bedroom bedsit apartments, all in good repair and each with a bathroom. While small, many of the units have interesting original period features, mezzanines and large windows overlooking the city.

Built around 1760, The Chorister’s House was constructed before Saint Fin Barre’s Cathedral, which is just across the road.

According to estate agent Kevin Barry of Barry Auctioneers, the investment property is now fully vacant.

A full list detailing the dimensions of each apartment in the building is available here.
