Tommy Barker ‘leafs’ no stone unturned in his praise of this eco-framed timber beauty at glorious Glengarriff Woods.

Tommy Barker talks the Walk

A West Cork delight, says Tommy Barker

Just a mile or two of scenic road, or stretch of river, separate two property sale arrivals this month near Bantry, West Cork.

Built in 2009, this stylish apartment has modern décor and is in a great location, with plans for a craft distillery, too, writes Trish Dromey.

Tommy Barker gets Lowertown lowdown.

Back for a third bite at a waterfront Glengarriff property sale is Engel & Voelkers estate agent Ron Krueger, who already has had 2016 and 2015 sales in the tiny townland known as Bocarnagh to his credit.

Built to an exceptional standard in 2009 in Clonakilty’s Waterfront development, apartment 3 in the niche residential block in the top tourism town has had a further high-end makeover and refit in time for its refloating for sale.

Perfect for a buyer who likes sea views on their holidays or for someone who wants to live with them all year round

Tommy Barker wrestles with coastal properties to attract overseas buyers around west Cork’s Ballydehob.

Attractive, well-located and recently redecorated, number 7 McCurtain Hill in Clonakilty is expected to appeal to first-time buyers and investors. 

Right on the Wild Atlantic Way 15 minutes west of Clonakilty, and close enough to see and hear the sea, is this renovated and upgraded coastal home of character, at a spot called Ganniv Mór near Ardfield and Rathbarry villages.

If you really do want to get away from it all, the madding crowd and the beach scene bustle, then pack up your troubles, and go to Kit’s Cottage.

Five-bed Clonakilty townhouse has made a push for more space out the back, says Tommy Barker.

This West Cork home with gorgeous sea views is sure to attract plenty of interest, writes Tommy Barker. 

Tommy Barker says this holiday home in west Cork’s Owenahincha has its own unique charm and a wonderfully warming wood-burning stove.

THE house is nothing to write home about — but the setting is postcard pretty. 

The main restoration work has been done to this West Cork farmhouse at Shanagh, near Ballineen and Dunmanway — so any final finishes will bring it along to be a fine country pad, says auctioneer Ray O’Neill.

Houses built in the 1990s on the eastern end of Clonakilty near the top-nosh SuperValu got called the ‘Smartie Houses’ thanks to all the different colours they were painted, and while many now need a fresh lick of colour, that’s not the case at 31 Bamba Street.

Lots of homework and domestic science have gone into the changes at this inland West Cork pad.

There’s a lovely, aloof setting, high above the beach and dunes and developed strip of Owenahincha, at Dún an Óir, Gortnagrenane.

 

Former West Cork residence of Anthony O’Reilly overlooking Glandore is on the money, says Tommy Barker.

Lovely, old world character — and land, and a gazebo — comes with Mountain Common Farmhouse, in the dispersed West Cork village Ardfield, six miles from Clonakilty.

BACK and busier than ever is the West Cork village of Leap, a scenic small community by a tidal inlet at the top of Glandore harbour, on the main N71 route to points further west.

Priced within reach of first-time buyers at €95,000, Strand Cottage will have an obvious appeal to holiday-home hunters, given its setting, by a Blue Flag beach.
