About 0.32 hectares (0.80 acres) Believed to date from the late 19th Century Marian House has a colourful past connected to the historic port of Cobh as it was built as an isolation hospital for sailors returning from the tropics to the then Queenstown Harbour. Set in a wonderfully bright and sunny position looking out to the harbour over Cuskinny Nature Reserve the property is surrounded by fields in a quiet rural location only minutes from Cobh.

A cinema room (which could be modified for use as a forth bedroom) incorporates a fitted office station and kitchenette area. Set along the front elevation is a conservatory and sun-room, with wood burning stove. A large integral double garage offers excellent potential for conversion and extension to provide further accommodation, if required. The property is well placed for the thriving and port town of Cobh, closely associated with White Star liner the Titanic.
