Make the most of the coast

THE sea is seconds away and can be viewed from the Alpine-style balcony of the master bedroom, as it can from almost all of the rooms in this cute dormer at Inch Bay in Whitegate, Co Cork.

With a cut-stone facade and matching retaining wall, this house was constructed from the remains of an older dwelling on the half-acre site at Baillin na Tra.

Up for sale with Valerie Parkes of Sherry FitzGerald, the three/four bedroomed dormer has a price guide of €300,000 and offers 1,400 sq ft of space, with three en-suite bedrooms.
