Description
Tucked in just off the Blackrock Road on Barrington's Avenue is Ballintemple House, a substantial five-bedroomed detached home that enjoys a most private and mature site in this highly prestigious and sought-after area of Cork.
As you make your way up the driveway, there are lawned areas to either side, lined with mature plants, shrubs and trees. Reaching the top of the driveway, there is ample parking space for several cars.
Moving inside, it is clear that this has been a wonderful family home throughout the years, and is now ready for its new owners to come in and make it their own to enjoy for many years to come.
Whilst in need of modernisation, the accommodation is generously proportioned and the layout offers great flexibility to suit the needs and preferences of any prospective purchasers.
The ground floor is comprised a porch, entrance hall, living room, office, formal dining room, kitchen / dining room, utility and shower room. Overhead, there are five bedrooms and two bathrooms.
The location of Ballintemple House is second to none, being within close proximity to the city centre, Ballintemple, Blackrock village and Mahon Point as well as local schools (both primary and secondary), public transport links, shops, banks, etc on its doorstep. There are also excellent amenities close by such as the Marina, Atlantic Pond, Railway Line Greenway, and Beaumont Park. Accommodation
