Description

St David’s Church & Grounds Church Lane, Carrigtwohill, Co. Cork, T45 TX68 Overview St David’s is a remarkable historic property in the heart of Carrigtwohill village, offering a rare combination of architectural character, generous grounds, and redevelopment potential. The estate includes a well-preserved nineteenth-century church, a spacious parish hall, a medieval stone tower, and an historic graveyard. Together they create a site of significant heritage interest and exceptional scope for sympathetic adaptation. ________________________________________ Location Carrigtwohill lies about fifteen kilometres east of Cork City and five kilometres west of Midleton on the N25. It benefits from excellent transport links: a commuter rail station within walking distance provides regular services to Cork and Midleton, and frequent bus routes serve the wider area. The village itself has a thriving community with schools, shops, cafés and health facilities. The property stands on quiet Church Lane just off the main street, set among mature stone walls and neighbouring historic buildings. Its central position ensures easy access to local amenities while retaining a sense of seclusion and character. ________________________________________ Property Breakdown Main Church Building – The principal church is a handsome detached stone structure with a slate roof and fine stained-glass windows. Internally it retains its timber-trussed roof, bright nave and chancel, and a warm, atmospheric character. The building is in good order and is currently rented to a local secondary school as a library. Its scale and condition make it ideal for continued community use or for conversion to an intimate performance venue, gallery, boutique café, or distinctive private residence, subject to planning. Parish Hall – Set a short distance from the church, the single-storey hall comprises a large open space with a kitchen, store room and two bathrooms. While structurally sound, it requires general upgrading and modernisation before occupation for new uses. Once improved, the hall could accommodate events, workshops, classrooms, wellness activities or be adapted as office or studio space. Stone Tower (Derelict) A dramatic ivy-clad medieval tower stands within the grounds. Although in poor repair, it contributes significant historical character and could become a striking feature in any redevelopment. Grounds and Graveyard The property includes surrounding land with parking areas, mature boundary walls and an historic graveyard containing numerous headstones. The graves add considerable cultural and heritage value and create a unique atmosphere, though they will limit certain forms of redevelopment. Any future project will need to respect this heritage and comply with conservation and archaeological guidelines. ________________________________________ Planning & Heritage The entire site is recorded as a Protected Structure in the Cork County Development Plan. This designation ensures that the special architectural and historical interest is preserved, and any alterations will require careful consultation with the local planning authority. Heritage status may also open the possibility of conservation grants. The site is zoned Community/Institutional, supporting civic, educational and cultural uses, though residential or mixed-use conversions may be considered subject to planning permission. ________________________________________ Potential and Opportunities The St David’s complex invites a range of creative reuses. The church’s dramatic interior could host a boutique restaurant, artisan market, or cultural performance venue. The hall, once upgraded, would suit community groups, fitness and wellness providers, or co-working studios. The tower, conserved as a feature or viewing point, could become a focal landmark. With sympathetic design, part of the site could accommodate a unique private dwelling or guest accommodation, integrating the historic graveyard as a contemplative garden. Given the site’s central location, good access and strong community identity, the property lends itself to a blend of cultural, community and specialist residential or hospitality uses, provided that heritage considerations are carefully addressed. Arrange a Viewing Interested parties are warmly invited to experience the character and potential of St David’s in person.
