Period Property For Sale: Cork

The Old Rectory, Bantry, Co. Cork
Elegant 5 bedroom Georgian property with stables and carriage house on 4.25 acre wooded site

The Old Rectory presents a rare opportunity to purchase an elegant five bedroom Georgian property with stables and carriage house located on an elevated and private 4.25 acre wooded site with sea views on the edge of Bantry town. The property, known as 'The Old Rectory', was built in 1816 on lands owned by Lord Bantry. It came into the freehold ownership of the Church of Ireland in 1922 and remained occupied by a succession of Ministers until the 1950s when it became a private residence.

This would make a superb family home and is just over an hour's drive from Cork City and Cork Airport. There are very, very few period properties for sale in the Bantry area and it is seldom that such a fine property presents itself for sale. Although structurally sound, the property is in need of restoration and repair.

The Old Rectory is about 3 km from the market town of Bantry in West Cork on an elevated site overlooking Bantry Bay and adjacent to the Westlodge Hotel. The property also has a basement and is approximately 622 sqm (6695 sqft).

Price: €450,000
