Two impressive homes for auction tomorrow

Thu, Jun 25, 2009

Tomorrow will see some of the best value ever going under the hammer of O’Donnellan & Joyce in its action room in Mary Street — No 4 Asca Beag and No 53 Threadneedle Road.

Located on the Old Rahoon Road, No 4 Asca Beg is being offered for sale at the unbelievable reduced price of €410,000. Back in 2006 when this very exclusive collection of six houses first came on the market they were being offered for sale at €595,000. Built by Cortoon Development Ltd, these homes are finished to an extremely high standard and nothing was spared at the time to bring Asca Beag to another level — a level that was the envy of all who viewed them at the time. However back then many people who dreamed of owning one of these homes were not in a position to purchase — and now here comes a golden opportunity for someone who was disappointed then. This time round purchasing a house in Asca Beag will come with a much lower price tag and there is no doubt that on Friday June 26 someone will leave the auction rooms of O’Donnellan & Joyce a very happy person.
