Modern, spacious country house on 1.5 acres

COUNTRY living, in a modern, spacious home on plenty of ground, is on offer at this Kilnamartra, Macroom home, near the Gearagh and its lunar landscape.

Built in the last few years at Shanballyshane, between Raleigh south and Kilnamartra, it is on 1.5 acres, with a side and back paddock for a pony, and has 2,000 sq ft of space.

It is new to market with Macroom agent, Killian Lynch, who seeks offers around €280,000, and for this a buyer will get a well-specified, five-bed family home, in a quiet rural setting, built to a traditional, two-storey design, yet with geo-thermal heating providing warmth under foot via underfloor heating on both levels.
