Castlegreina House Demolition Approved | Ireland News

A haunting chapter in Cork’s history is finally coming to an end as the derelict Castlegreina House, site of a brutal 2019 murder, faces demolition. The shocking killing of 64-year-old Frankie Dunne — found dismembered in the garden by a neighbor searching for his cat — shocked the community. Romanian national Ionut Cosmin Nicholescu, 30 at the time, was convicted and sentenced to life. Once a Gothic gem from the 1890s, the house has stood as a grim memorial. Now, after selling for €485,000, new owners seek to tear it down — engineers say it’s structurally unsafe. Cork City Council will decide by October 5th whether to grant the permit, offering closure to a case that still haunts locals.
