Picture postcard setting in West Cork

Derelict traditional farmhouse has a special location, Tommy Barker reports

BUYING this scenically-set farmhouse, in or around its €99,000 price guide, is just for starters — that’s when the hard work and imagination is called upon.

For sale in a quite special West Cork location is this old, derelict traditional coastal lofted farmhouse on two and a half glorious and green acres, along with farm buildings. Selling agent Henry O’Leary reckons it’s going to sell quickly, and may go over the €100,000 level on site value alone. He calls the setting picture postcard pretty — “one of the most spectacular settings along the West Cork coast”.
