Hobby farm or just seaside house, choice is all yours

A HOUSE that dominates its south-Cork landscape in a highly restricted area should whet the appetite of buyers looking for a seaside location.

And there’s the option of running a hobby farm from here as the property at Killowen, Minane Bridge comes with the option of an extra 33 acres of land.

It’s on offer at €1.2 million through auctioneer, Christy Buckley of Ballinhassig.

Launched on the market in late spring, the house offers substantial living accommodation in a superb coastal location.

Yet, it’s also within commuting distance of Cork city and has the potential to be a fine, hobby farm, says the agent.

He’s offering the house and 2.5 acres in one lot, with further lots available if required.

A six-bed property, it’s located in a very restricted area Close to Kinsale, Robert’s Cove and Carrigaline, and the large, pharmaceutical plants of south Cork, which gives it a big pool of potential buyers. Brand new, in excellent condition with a range of living rooms, it’s pitched at the top end of the market.

It has stunning sea views over Carrigadda Bay and Robert’s Head and a choice of good beaches and swimming spots. It is an ideal as a family home.

All services are in place and the grounds around the house are post and rail fenced, with a driveway and plenty of parking.
