The location of Tower Street in the heart of the South Parish in Cork city is second to none for
convenience to the city centre and all that it has to offer. Now brought to the market is this fine two
bedroomed terraced home by Patricia Stokes Auctioneers & Valuers. While in need of
modernisation and upgrading the property offers its space over two levels and enjoys an enclosed
yard to the rear. This home would be an ideal first time buyer project for someone looking to live
close to all amenities. Its location within walking distance of UCC and the Bons Secours hospital
makes it an idea investment opportunity. The home has no rental history and was living it by its
owner up until recently.
Tower Street was previously known as Cat Lane after the fort there. In 1865 local merchant Michael
Callanan built the tower which now gives the street its name and was set at that time in a pleasure
garden of 7 acres.

gentle stroll of the city centre. The overall area of this home extends to 841 sq. ft. (78.19sq mt) The
