Rose Martin finds loads to view, inside and out, at this great vantage point over Crosshaven harbour.

CORK Week, the sailing extravaganza, has sailed in, and swanned back out again, leaving an estimated €40 million boost to the local Crosshaven economy.

IT’S a bit of a beauty, this double-decker cottage in Crosshaven. And it’s not just the privacy, the huge site and the reach-over views of Drake’s Pool — it’s the potential.

AT an even €500,000 asking price, it might seem on the steep side for an older style four-bed semi...but throw in water views, a setting on the edge of Crosshaven, and the possibility of a house site for a detached house alongside, and the price seems all the better.

HOME to the haves and the have-yachts, Currabinny in Cork Harbour is an area where house prices are elevated and sales are rare.

FROM the outside, 14 Arnott Street resembles a nice, compact little matchbox property, but there’s a lot more beneath the surface of the 980 sq ft home, which has accommodation spread over three levels.
