Farmhouse For Sale in Co. Cork

This traditional farmhouse (c. 202 sqm) offers a wonderful opportunity to embrace the tranquillity and natural beauty of West Cork. The property has been sympathetically renovated and is currently arranged with flexible accommodation that could be easily adapted to suit a new owner’s needs.

After undergoing a complete renovation in 2004/2005, this residence has been well maintained over the years but there is scope to refresh the interiors. It retains much of its original character while featuring modern energy-efficient upgrades, including an air-to-water heat pump and PV solar panels, achieving an impressive A2 BER rating, ensuring low energy costs and year-round comfort.

The grounds are a true highlight, with mature and recently planted native trees, flowering shrubs, kitchen garden, polytunnel and rustic features such as an old goose den, adding to the charm and character of the property. A private driveway leads to this peaceful retreat, offering complete seclusion while remaining highly accessible.

Located just 8km from the vibrant market town of Skibbereen and 1.5km from the picturesque village of Caheragh, the property enjoys the best of both worlds – convenience and serenity. The stunning coastline, with its hidden coves and sandy beaches, is within easy reach, offering excellent opportunities for sailing, swimming, and watersports, with moorings readily available.
