Large new build in prized west Cork area

A COUNTRY of drumlins, lakes, and coastline, the Shepperton Lakes/Union Hall area is all about the landscape.

Close enough to the city for the second-homers and with good facilities available at Clonakilty and Skibbereen, it’s the ideal mix of waters, wild and... shopping.

And, if being away from the coast a little isn’t a problem, then this new build at Brade, Union Hall, could be right as a main or breakaway home. It’s not cheap, at €725,000, but then, west Cork does try to brazen-out the property downturn.
