Leap at this chance to buy into a lifestyle as well as a harbour home
The fussy treatment of this detached house detracts from its main selling points — the gardens and the view.
Properties like this one at Inchera, Leap are rare enough in the soft, sheltered inlet off Glandore Harbour.
It has the views, the almost-waterside location and a good address, which, in west Cork terms, means it’s pretty high up the scale.
The guide, however, is a reasonable, €550,000 — three years ago, that would have been doubled, but in the current sensible market, selling is the aim, rather than selling high .
And there are some areas which will always sell, and the greater Glandore area is one of them. Purchase a property here and you’re not just buying a house, but a lifestyle.
Erin McCarthy of Pat Maguire Properties says it has a magnificent setting. Tucked into a cleft of woodland, it’s surrounded by grounds of an acre including rocky outcrops and a natural stream.
The quality of landscaping is superb, without being regimented, so there are drift of montbretia, clusters of hydrangea and a profusion of summer bedding. Facing south over the water, this position is taken advantage of with a first storey lounge leading onto a paved patio raised above the sloping garden.
The kitchen/ dining room, study, two bedrooms and two bathrooms are at ground floor level and two further bedrooms, along with a bathroom are on the first floor along with the living room.
The property is a walk to Leap village and less than two miles to Glandore and Union Hall.
