\"ApartmentApartment 53, Genoa, Harty\u2019s Quay has a guide price of \u20ac480,000<\/p>\n

If you had your eye on another penthouse apartment at Harty\u2019s Quay featured here recently then this could be your second bite at the cherry now that a sale has just been agreed on an apartment formerly owned by Irish Rugby legend Peter Stringer<\/a>. That property was shown by Trevor O\u2019Sullivan of Lisney Sotheby and is understood to have reached just below \u20ac600,000.<\/p>\n

But you\u2019ll have to move lively too for this three-bedroom penthouse apartment at 53 Genoa, Harty\u2019s Quay in Rochestown. It\u2019s priced at \u20ac430,000 and there are currently offers above the guide price.
Viewers so far have included a mix of first-time-buyers and people with retirement on the horizon who are looking for future-proofed accommodation, notes selling agent Johanna Murphy of Johanna Murphy & Sons Auctioneers. There has also been interest from people looking at moving back here from overseas.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cThis apartment is all on the one floor and comes with two parking spaces which are just by the private door leading to the lift up to the penthouse and there are only two apartments on the top floor.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rented out for the last few years, this apartment is in great condition and comes with furniture and appliances included, she adds.<\/p>\n

\"WideWide estuary views from the balcony<\/p>\n

The apartment is in one of nine blocks in the 175-unit development which was built in the mid 2000s \u2014 and comes with management fees of \u20ac2700.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Two of the three bedrooms are ensuite and the third has most recently been used as a home office. They all have balcony access. The front of the apartment though is where the views really come into play, and there are two balcony access points.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The apartment has gas heating and the drier and washing machine are concealed behind double doors in the hallway giving a sleeker, more relaxed vibe in the kitchen.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re right on the Cork Harbour greenway giving walking or bike links to Passage West or to Blackrock and on to the city centre.<\/p>\n
