Stylish Waterfall home at Earls Well hits market for €1.2m — could set estate price record

LOCAL lore has it that a well or spring in Waterfall was a regular pitstop for some historical notable to water his horses, perhaps while conducting the business of running a vast estate. Some of the speculation centres on the Earl of Bandon, as he may have passed through Waterfall on the road home. The theory works in favour of the original Gaelic name for Waterfall, Tobar an Iarla, or Well of the Earl. While the days of earls are long gone this side of the Irish Sea, Waterfall still has an upmarket sheen. Traditionally favoured by academics and medics, it's on the right side of Cork City for accessing major hospitals and third-level education facilities. Bishopstown is reachable in minutes, yet Waterfall feels distinctly rural. Twenty-first century developments continue to cement Waterfall's aura of fashionability. 11 Earls Well In the early noughties, Fleming Construction launched Heatherfield, a scheme of large, detached homes on the city side of Waterfall village, where dozens queued to view the showhouse in Celtic Tiger times. Reports were that some of the Heatherfield units sold for €1m a pop. They've never quite returned to those glory days, says the price register, albeit No 35 made €820,000 two years ago, and No 38, currently on the market with Frank V Murphy, is rumoured to be sale agreed at €1.15m. 38 Heatherfield is rumoured to be sale agreed in excess of €1m Heatherfield was a talking point in Waterfall until Fleming Construction unveiled plans for an even more ambitious scheme of 42 homes right next door to it, to be built on 30 acres bought from local publicans, the O'Shea family. That estate was Earls Well and it would be built to standards few estates could match. The first five homes lived up to the billing: Detached, O'Mahony Pike designed five-beds, the biggest was just shy of 4,000 sq ft. Unfortunately for the builder, the timing was disastrous and nothing sold as the downturn took hold. Flemings went into liquidation in 2010, one of the first major construction casualties of the collapse, with debts of a staggering €1bn. NAMA entered the frame during the post-crash mop-up and Townmore Construction took on the build work in late 2016. Another dozen homes were delivered — including No 11, featured here — before receivers for the Fleming group sold off the remaining land with full planning permission for 28 homes, which O'Callaghan Properties bought and finished out. The entire estate is now finally completed, fully landscaped, and all homes occupied. no 11 Earls Well To date, resales have been few and far between. Number 11's arrival to market should, therefore, excite interest among homeowners looking for a quality family trade-up within shouting distance of the city's western suburbs. Bought by the current owners in 2018, you could scarcely tell it's been lived in, so good is its condition. Although smaller than the original five in the scheme, it's still a very generous 237 sq m, and layout and light levels make it feel even bigger. Generous hallway at No 11 No 11, towards the back of the development — which is arranged in cul-de-sac clusters, around greens — was sold with a builder's finish for €603,300 in 2018. Its owners hired an interior designer to get it right inside. Warm, amtico, herringbone-style flooring runs throughout the ground floor, where heating is underfloor; bespoke wall panelling is a prominent feature; impressive 'media walls' in the family room and in the kitchen/dining/living room are the product of skilled joinery. Family room with built in media wall As the owner knows a thing or two about kitchens, the one at No 11 looks pretty good. Hand-painted, in-frame, with a large island, quartz worktop, and Belfast sink with insinkerator (garbage disposal), it also comes with a wine fridge and AGA electric range cooker. Bigger household appliances are in the adjoining utility. The island can sit three comfortably, and there's room for a few more at the dining table in the centre of the open-plan area, where a picture window overlooks the farmer's field next door. 'You get cows peeping in from time to time; it's great to have that when you are so close to the city, too,' the owner says. The open-plan area also accommodates an attractive lounge space, where glazing covers the entire back wall, overlooking the terrifically generous rear garden. A sliding door leads outside. The house is designed to capitalise on its rear aspect. It faces south west and big windows dominate its rear walls. Wraparound glazing is a feature of both the main, open-plan area and also the family room, where the second of three sets of sliding door leads to the large, sandstone patio. Family room The third sliding door is in the study, which has bespoke wall panelling, plantation shutters, and specially-built joinery for storing files and watching television. Generous bedrooms are a theme on the Ducon concrete, slabbed first floor; the main has both a walk-in closet and a quality en suite. All have plantation shutters and there's a second en suite. A floored attic runs the length of the house and there's also a garage for storage. Study The family aspect to No 11 continues outdoors where the rear is laid to lawn — plenty space for swings/slides/trampoline — while the front drive 'can accommodate 10-15 cars', says the owner. Plenty space for outdoor toys Because the houses at Earls Well are all on large sites — No 11 is on 0.4a — there's no sense of being overlooked. Mature hedging and electronic gates reinforce that sense of privacy, not to mention security for the children. The current owners are relocating for family reasons and Norma Healy, of Sherry FitzGerald, is handling the sale. She says 2,550 sq ft No 11 is 'the quintessential, modern family home', ready to go, with a best-in-class, A-3 energy rating. 'What's more, it's just minutes from Bishopstown and Ballinora national school is just half a mile down the road,' the agent says. Her price for this spacious, stylish home is €1.2m. If it makes the money, it will set a record for the estate. Two larger Earls Well units have already breached €1m, but both were bigger. However, neither was fully finished. VERDICT: The complete package for a family trading up who want to be a stone's throw from Bishopstown.

Cops in Nashik file case over illegal banner

Nashik: The Mumbai Naka police registered a case against a man for putting up an illegal banner along the street in the Govind Nagar area of the city. A case was registered against him under relevant sections of the Maharashtra Municipal Corporations (Regulation and Control of Sky Signs and Advertisements) Rules, 2022, and The Maharashtra Prevention of Defacement of Property Act. The 10 feet board in Marathi, read a message that "We will continue to put up our shops here even if the common people die. We have strong support of the Municipal Corporation and the police administration." It was immediately removed as it was put on the land of the NMC. The board suggested the continuous encroachment on the streets by people who put up their stalls along the streets, encroaching on public places. Owing to the encroachments, there is less space on the road, which consequently leads to road accidents.

​​​Exploring the afterlife in '​​Die-Mentions: The 12 Dimensions of God​​​'​​​​​

In 'Die-Mentions: The 12 Dimensions of God,' James Allen explores life, death and the dimensions that may lie beyond our physical existence. Using scientific principles, scriptural references and personal experiences, Allen offers a vision of the soul's journey after death. The Law of Conservation of Energy One of the central themes in Allen's work is the idea that energy is neither created nor destroyed but instead transformed. This principle, known as the Law of Conservation of Energy, is a fundamental concept in physics. Allen suggests that human life energy, which is inherently linked to God's divine breath, follows the same law. 'Energy does not cease,' Allen writes. 'It simply changes form.' This foundational concept sets the stage for his exploration of the soul's journey. According to Allen, death is not an end but a transition from one state of existence to another. He draws parallels between the transformation of physical energy and the soul's movement from one dimension to another. Dimensional existence beyond the physical Building upon the concept of energy transformation, Allen discusses the idea of dimensional existence. He draws from string theory and other scientific models to suggest that our physical reality is just one layer of a far more complex universe. According to Allen, there are multiple dimensions that humans cannot perceive but are crucial to understanding the nature of existence. 'Just as a two-dimensional being cannot perceive the third dimension, we too are limited in our understanding of the higher realms,' Allen explains. He refers to various scriptural accounts, such as the Transfiguration of Jesus and the resurrection appearances, to illustrate the possibility of higher-dimensional interactions. The role of faith in perception Faith plays an important role in Allen's exploration of life beyond death. He argues that faith is not merely a belief in something unseen but a way of perceiving dimensions beyond our own. Allen proposes faith allows us to tap into higher truths and connect with the divine reality beyond our limited perception. 'Faith is the bridge between what we can see and what lies beyond our senses,' Allen writes. He suggests that spiritual awareness is a form of perception that transcends the body's physical limitations. Through faith, individuals can access the higher realms and understand the soul's eternal nature. Near-death experiences as evidence A significant portion of Allen's work is dedicated to near-death experiences (NDEs), which he sees as anecdotal evidence of life beyond death. Many people who have undergone NDEs report consistent themes: traveling through a tunnel, encountering beings of light, experiencing a life review and feeling a sense of peace and love. Allen explores these experiences as indications of a reality beyond the physical world. He writes, 'People who have experienced NDEs often describe an overwhelming sense of love and a greater understanding of their life's purpose.' These accounts, Allen argues, provide a window into the afterlife and offer insight into the nature of the soul's journey after death. By examining these experiences through a scientific and spiritual lens, Allen argues that NDEs support the idea of higher-dimensional existence and the continuity of consciousness beyond death. Communication across dimensions Another important aspect of Allen's exploration is the idea of communication across dimensions. He suggests that communication may occur telepathically in higher dimensions, bypassing the need for verbal language. This idea is rooted in scriptural accounts of divine communication, such as the Pentecost experience, where individuals understood each other through thought rather than words. Allen argues that early humans like Adam and Eve may have communicated this way. He explains, 'Telepathic communication may have been the original form of interaction between humans and the divine.' As humanity ascends higher dimensions, Allen believes that communication will increasingly move away from spoken language and into pure thought, aligning with the soul's higher-dimensional nature. The afterlife and transformation Allen's book also explores the concept of the afterlife as a transformation process. He suggests that the soul undergoes a continual evolution before and after death. This transformation is spiritual and dimensional as the soul ascends through higher levels of existence. Allen ties this idea to the biblical concept of the resurrection, suggesting that the soul's ultimate goal is to achieve a higher state of being. 'Resurrection is not just a return to life,' Allen writes. 'It is a transformation into a new form of existence.' In Allen's view, this transformation is the ultimate purpose of the soul's journey. Through this process, the soul becomes more attuned to divine energy, reaching a state of harmony with the higher dimensions. The 'New Earth' and higher realities The 'New Earth' concept is another key aspect of Allen's exploration. He interprets this biblical idea as a reference to a higher-dimensional reality where the soul will reside after death. According to Allen, the New Earth is not a physical place but a transformed state where individuals will exist as beings of light and energy. He explains, 'The New Earth is not a place, but a state of existence — a higher-dimensional reality where the soul will experience eternal life in its most complete and pure form.' This aligns with Allen's broader vision of the afterlife as a continuous spiritual growth and transformation within our final resting place.

Currently, Allen is self-employed as an inventor, misting systems specialist and livestock farmer.
