Description

Áine McLoughlin of AML Property Services is delighted to bring 2 Knocklaun to the market, a beautiful four bedroom, three bathroom Edwardian home occupying an elevated position on Ballyhooly Road in the heart of St. Luke's. Cork City. Dating from circa 1910 and extending to approximately 164 sq. metres, (Approx 1765 sq ft) this is a substantial period home arranged over three floors. Just a couple of minutes' walk from St. Luke's Cross and within easy walking distance of Cork City Centre, the property combines all the character and proportions of an older home with the benefit of significant modern upgrades. From the moment you enter, the original character is immediately evident. The entrance hall retains its beautiful period tiled floor, while throughout the house there are original timber doors and five original fireplaces. This home has been upgraded over recent years. Extensive modernisation was carried out in 2016, including new heating, plumbing and electrics, followed by double glazed sliding sash windows in 2017. More recently, a new kitchen roof and gutters were completed in 2023. Further improvements in 2025 included repointing of the chimney, a stove insertion, new carpets and radiators, while a new water pump was installed in 2026. This ongoing programme of works is a real benefit for anyone looking for a period property that has been carefully maintained rather than simply cosmetically updated. The ground floor accommodation is particularly impressive. To the front is a generous living room with a beautiful bay window overlooking the front garden and a striking period fireplace. Behind this is a separate dining room, again with a fireplace, which leads through to the extended kitchen. The kitchen is undoubtedly one of the highlights of the house. Bright and spacious, it has been designed as a genuine family kitchen with extensive cabinetry, quartz worktops, a large solid oak island and plenty of space for seating. Skylights and extensive glazing flood the extension with natural light. Off the kitchen is a utility area with access to a small rear courtyard . A separate utility/WC completes the ground floor accommodation. On the first floor are two particularly generous double bedrooms. The main bedroom is very spacious and bright and benefits from an ensuite, while the second bedroom retains an original fireplace. Also on this level is the family bathroom, a bright and stylish space with a freestanding bath and separate shower. The accommodation continues to the second floor where there are two further substantial rooms. These offer excellent flexibility and could be used as additional bedrooms, a home office, playroom or second living space depending on the requirements of the new owners. The attic is fully floored with Stira access, providing additional storage. The location is difficult to beat. St. Luke's is one of Cork City's most established and sought after residential neighbourhoods, renowned for its period architecture, village atmosphere and proximity to the city. St. Luke's Cross is approximately a two minute walk away, while Cork City Centre is around a ten minute downhill walk. The property currently holds a C BER rating which is excellent for a property of its age 2 Knocklaun is a wonderfully characterful Cork home. At approximately 164 sq. metres, with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, generous living accommodation and a host of original period features, it offers the space of a substantial Edwardian property together with thoughtful upgrading by its current owners. For anyone looking for a distinctive period home within walking distance of Cork City Centre, 2 Knocklaun is a property that really needs to be seen. On street parking. Viewing is strictly by appointment with Áine McLoughlin of AML Property Services.
