Cove a bonus with Brulea

DIRECTLY south of the Drumbeg Stone Circle near Glandore in west Cork, right on the coastline, Brulea is a house with a bit extra on the side: a beach.

The renovated bungalow is on a cracking site by the end of a country lane, a couple of hundred yards from a hidden cove. Hidden, too, because most of the sandy cove gets swallowed up twice daily by the incoming tides, according to estate agent Henry O’Leary of the Property Partners Network.

He last sold this house back around 2000, and now has it priced at €550,000 for its current owners who have continued to improve the impeccably located property.
