In all about 4.05 Hectares (10 Acres) Published in 1837, Lewis’s Topographical Dictionary of Ireland states that a glebe of 30 acres was purchased at Ahavrin by The Board of First Fruits to build a rectory. On the First Edition Ordnance Survey map of 1842, the erection date of the property is given as c. 1840 and is labelled as St. Olan’s Rectory. Interestingly, it is noted also that the rector did not initially take possession as he felt the annual rental was too high. The four bay house provides well-proportioned accommodation arranged over three storeys and extending to over 470 sq metres (5000 sq ft). The raised ground floor includes two fine interlinked reception rooms running across the entire house front which overlook the grounds, together with an impressive barrel-vaulted staircase hall lit by large arched window. A rear yard has traditional outbuildings which have been recently converted to provide three character self-contained cottages. The house occupies a secluded private position surrounded by mature tree and gardens. MID CORK St.Olan’s is located in a scenic rural area of the picturesque River Lee Valley in mid Cork, a region of rich undulating farmland and wooded glens centered on the Inniscarra Reservoir, noted for its fishing, sailing and water sports. Cork city and International Airport are within easy reach. Coachford provided local amenities whilst Macroom provides a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and financial services together with pubs and restaurants. There are many leisure and sporting amenities nearby together with a peaceful pace of life. This area provides some of the finest fishing to the Rivers Lee and Bandon and golf at Killarney, Macroom, Blarney and Lee Valley. The lakes and mountains of Killarney together with the beaches of West Cork are all within an hours drive. Hunting is with the Muskerry and South Union with racing at Mallow (Cork Race Course) and Killarney.
