West Cork still attracts big spenders

EVEN IN a depressed market, west Cork can still work its magic, particularly on overseas buyers

EVEN IN a depressed market, west Cork can still work its magic, particularly on overseas buyers. Skibbereen agent Charles McCarthy has just sold a house in fashionable Glandore for around €1 million to an English buyer. Rushanes (above), a six-bedroom house on six acres of land, has superb views over Glandore harbour towards Union Hall. It's in mint condition throughout, and the well kept land is divided into gardens and paddocks with stabling for a horse or two.
