Description
Stunning five bed detached home with views of Cork Harbour and beyond.
Savills are delighted to present 2 Ballynaroon, Glounthaune, a superb five-bedroom detached residence occupying a private and elevated position with stunning views over Cork Harbour and the surrounding countryside.
Approached via a sweeping tarmac driveway, the property offers generous private parking and an immediate sense of privacy and seclusion. On entering, a spacious and welcoming reception hall sets the tone for this impressive family home. To the right of the entrance hall is the exceptionally spacious lounge, which extends the full depth of the property.
Featuring a multiple-aspect layout, this impressive room is flooded with natural light and enjoys wonderful views over the gardens and towards Cork Harbour. Returning to the hallway, the den provides a cosy and versatile additional living space, ideal for use as a home office, TV room or quiet retreat. Enjoying water views, the den is conveniently connected to the kitchen. The kitchen has been upgraded in recent years and benefits from excellent front-facing views, as well as convenient side access to the garden. It in turn leads through to the dining room, a well-proportioned space ideal for family dining and entertaining.
The former garage has been thoughtfully converted and is now presented as a highly practical utility and storage room, with direct internal access from the dining room. Completing the ground floor are a guest WC and cloakroom.
Upstairs, the accommodation comprises five well-proportioned double bedrooms. The front-facing bedrooms enjoy superb elevated views across the water and surrounding countryside. Several bedrooms benefit from built-in wardrobe storage, while four of the five bedrooms also have the added convenience of a wash hand basin. The first floor is further complemented by two bathrooms and a large storage room.
Outside, the property is particularly impressive. Set well back from the road, 2 Ballynaroon enjoys an excellent degree of privacy and is naturally enclosed by mature trees and established foliage. The generous side gardens extend along both elevations, with ample space for a steel shed and concrete base on the western side.
Continuing around the property, the main rear garden is a wonderful feature of the home, combining generous lawned areas with paved patio space, mature trees, established shrubs and, most notably, spectacular views across Cork Harbour and beyond. The combination of privacy, mature landscaping and elevated views creates a truly special outdoor setting.
Situated in a highly desirable and elevated residential location in the ever-popular Glounthaune area, 2 Ballynaroon is ideally positioned close to a host of local amenities, including schools, shops, sports clubs and restaurants.
