"Content": "In an idyllic coastal setting, this architecturally designed residence presents a rare and exceptional opportunity within the West Cork property market. Nestled on approximately 0.5 acres, this home, originally built in the early 1980s with a thoughtful extension added in 1994, spans a generous 404 sqm (4,350 sq ft). The property boasts a unique ‘upside-down' layout strategically designed to capture and enhance the breathtaking coastal views from the main living areas.\r\n\r\nUpon entering the ground floor, you are welcomed by four spacious bedrooms, including one with an ensuite and two additional bathrooms. Ascending to the first floor, you'll find an expansive open-plan kitchen and living area that offers panoramic vistas of the stunning coastline. This floor also includes a self-contained studio with its own kitchen, bathroom, living area, and a cleverly integrated Murphy bed. With its separate entrance, yet connected to the main house, the studio is perfect for accommodating guests or exploring rental potential.\r\n\r\nAmong the many standout features of this property is the impressive indoor heated pool, measuring 10m x 4m. Set within a generous 150 sqm space, the pool area boasts vaulted beamed ceilings, roof lights, and a surrounding pool deck and terrace, creating a space designed for year-round enjoyment. Double doors at the gable end open onto the outside, allowing for a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living on sunny days. Heated by efficient heat pumps, both the pool and the main residence benefit from year-round energy-efficient comfort. A separate shower is located just beside the pool for added convenience. This versatile space also offers exciting potential for alternative uses—it could easily be reimagined as a home gym or artists studio, making it a highly flexible addition to the property.\r\n\r\nThe house is rich in timberwork, including two staircases, one providing direct access to the pool from the main living area. For added accessibility, a lift has been installed between the floors. Additional practical features include loft storage space and under eaves storage, a triple garage, a spacious utility room with ample shelving, and broadband connectivity.\r\n\r\nExternally, the property is equally impressive, with its exterior freshly painted in 2022 and a natural Welsh slate roof adding to its charm. The expansive mature landscaped garden offers a peaceful retreat, while the sheltered kitchen garden with raised beds, set within the ruins of a 'pre-famine dwelling,' provides a unique and historical touch. An outdoor courtyard, a small terrace off the pool ideal for a Jacuzzi, and a large patio/seating area in front of the pool all contribute to the property's allure. The large gravelled driveway, equipped with lighting, and a traditional stone wall crafted by local artisans further enhance the entrance.\r\n\r\nA raised veranda offers stunning views of Cape Clear and the Fastnet lighthouse, making it the perfect spot to soak in the natural beauty of the surroundings. Located just off the Wild Atlantic Way, this secluded property offers elevated views of the dramatic coastline and cliffs, with numerous scenic walks and pathways to explore. These substantial stone signs, including an ‘EIRE 28' signal, dating from World War 2, declared Ireland's neutrality and navigational aid for airmen to whom the numbered locations were valuable guide points during their missions. \r\n\r\nDespite its tranquil setting, the property is conveniently situated 7km south of Castletownshend Victorian village & c. 12 km to Skibbereen market town. Nearby are several picturesque beaches, including Tra na nDabhcha, Sandycove, Lickowen and Tragumna. Each offers its own unique charm, making this coastal residence a true gem.\r\n\r\nAccommodation:\r\n\r\nGround Floor\r\n\r\nPorch: 2.3m x 2.0m. \r\nStep up into the porch.
