Ideal Baltimore base for couple or family is sure to tempt buyers

BALTIMORE in west Cork has some of the coastline’s prettiest hideaways, and access to remarkable islands — it’s an explorer’s paradise.

You don’t have to have a boat, dinghy or powerful RIB to fit in here and make the most of its natural attributes, but chances are you’ll be marine-inclined in some shape or form if you’re tempted to spend much time down this way.

Many of this coastal community’s property prices would take your breath away, so here’s one that might allow you to buy a Baltimore base, throw a few quid at a boat, and still catch a financial breath: it’s within many a buyer’s grasp, and gasp.
