Great views of bay from Todd’s Cottage

AN orchard, chicken run, veggie patch and a house that’s neat and nice - that’s Todd’s Cottage on the Sheep’s Head peninsula in Co Cork.

Well known to those who’ve trod the Sheep’s Head Way, this is a quiet peninsula with a low population density and dramatic scenery.

Located in the townland of Mautimile, the house is seven miles from Bantry town and three miles from Durrus, which is an attractive village on the peninsula.

Todd’s Cottage is on top of a hill, say selling agents Sherry FitzGerald O’Neill, and has great views over Bantry Bay. It has been substantially extended and now comes with about 1,000 square feet of space with plenty of living rooms.

The house has two bedrooms, a living room, sunroom, conservatory and dining room.

The kitchen is bright and a good size and comes fitted in pine units.

Then, there’s a large store room outside, a green house, garden pond and various lawns and beds. Ideal for a couple, retired or otherwise, it has a price tag of €265,000 through Sherry FitzGerald O’Neill.
