Description

Substantial coastal residence, extending to 227 sq. m. (2,440 sq. ft.) approx., occupying a private and elevated site of c. 1.70 acres and enjoying a peaceful rural setting with rolling countryside and forest views. Located just two miles from the picturesque coastal village of Durrus, this property offers an excellent opportunity to acquire a spacious family home. The residence, which requires renovation, features an entrance hallway, a sitting room, an open-plan kitchen and dining area, a separate living room, four bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a shower room. Oil-fired central heating, a solid fuel stove and PVC double-glazed windows are among the property's key features. To the rear of the property, there is a self-contained unit connected to the main house via sunroom. This part of the property includes an additional office or bedroom with an adjoining bathroom, a storeroom and a separate entrance hall, offering versatility for extended family living, guest accommodation or potential home office use. The property may qualify for the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant, offering further potential for buyers seeking a renovation project. The grounds surrounding the house are mature and well-established, bordered by trees and shrubs that enhance the property's sense of privacy. A detached garage/workshop, formerly used as a stable, is located on site, along with a generous paddock area to the rear which benefits from a second entrance driveway. This layout offers potential for subdivision or the creation of separate lots, subject to the necessary planning consents. Situated on the renowned Wild Atlantic Way, where the Sheep's Head and Mizen Peninsulas converge, the property enjoys a prime coastal location. Durrus village provides local amenities and a welcoming community atmosphere, while Bantry town is less than a ten-minute drive. The attractive villages of Ballydehob, Schull, Ahakista, and Kilcrohane are all within close proximity, and Cork City is just over an hour's commute.
