If there’s a straw in the wind, or a clump of grassy divot in the road around this home called Seascape, it’s because there’s sporting heritage as well as beauty in the verdant ditches and road around this West Cork coastal home.

An old, stone wall which was part of the original Castlefreke estate of Lord Carbery bounds Cloonbeg, a four-bed home which is for sale in West Cork’s Rathbarry village.

LAST up for sale two years ago, but withdrawn from the market for a period by its owner the sculptor Eilis O'Connell, Castlefreke Cottage is a West Cork seaside buy with an auction sale deadline.
