It’s slim pickings on the Blackrock Road, but this €375k home could be your skinny love

By Yay Cork July 24, 2024July 24, 2024

It’s Cork’s own version of ‘Millionaire’s Row’.

But you’re keen to nab a Blackrock Road address without blowing your entire Euromillions win, No. 1 Dunowen might be your perfect pad in the poshest city neighbourhood.

The two-bedroom, one-bathroom period property is a neat little sliver of an end-of-terrace, and while there’s no denying it’s tall and skinny, it has a surprising amount of potential inside.

Listed with ERA Downey McCarthy, the property is in great condition throughout, has been lovingly maintained and boasts many of its original features.

Measuring a cosy 80 square metres, the recently renovated home offers a surprising amount of space for comfortable living, all nestled within a character-filled traditional build.

Inside, a small living room boasts high ceilings, a fireplace, and a large window that floods the space with natural light.

The heart of the home is the recently renovated kitchen and dining area, while upstairs, two double bedrooms boast built-in wardrobes that could easily be modernised with a lick of paint and new hardware and feature fireplaces.

But the real gem of this property might just be the cute rear garden.

Stepping through the rear hallway, you’re greeted by a charming outdoor space bathed in south-facing sunshine.

Mature shrubs and plants create a tranquil oasis, perfect for escaping the hustle and bustle and just about roomy enough for a pair of sun loungers and a barbecue.

For more information or to arrange a viewing, contact Judy O’Brien of ERA Downey McCarthy via the listing here.
