There’s a global edge to the West Cork gem estate called Creagh Gardens, new to market with an international, understated appeal — and a €5 million price tag.

Billed as “the property jewel of West Cork,” the authentic early Regency house, on 56 acres with acclaimed romantic, Robinsonian gardens has been home for the last decade and more to international IT businessman, serial entrepreneur and ex-chairman of Dublin’s Digital Hub, Leonard Donnelly, his wife Sarah and their young adult family.
