If you are looking for a conveniently located house, a doer upper, water view and in Cobh – No. 4 Dock Terrace is the house for you – ideal property for you to use your interior expertise. Plenty of scope within to create a modern house for todays living.

When you walk into No. 4 – its like going back in time – the busy carpet, tiles, fireplaces in all the rooms, scullery – so authenic but whats the real prize is the water view from the back and the use of the communal waterfront garden, there is also a common slip if you are into kayaking, boating etc – it’s a real gem.

Currently the house has a tiled entrance hall, 2 generous reception rooms, galley style kitchen and pantry, first floor has 3 bedrooms and a bathroom and the attic has 2 rooms.

What could you do – downstairs you could join up the kitchen/ pantry and one of the reception rooms ( I would try and get in a downstairs WC & WHB). First floor leave as it and the attic put into one big room.

The house needs work – everything – the roof isn’t leaking but again all this will have to be checked but it appears solid, dry and mainly – windows, electrics, plumbing as there isn’t heating. With the grants available today, there should be a few to avail of.

Definitely a house to view – ideal for the investor or indeed the speculative buyer.
