Push the boat out at riverside property in Kilmacsimon, Bandon
Built just 20 years ago on a site of three quarters of an acre near the River Bandon, it is a spacious modern property with over 2,300 sq ft of living space.
Buiding it at €475,000, Paddy Murray auctioneers say the elevated riverside location is a strong selling point, even though you can’t see the river from the house because of the mature trees at the bottom of the garden.
There’s always a demand for riverside properties says auctioneer Damien Murray, who believes that this one is within easy rowing distance of Kinsale.
Inside, the lead effect gothic style windows are rooms which are much larger than might have been found in a period lodge.
The most sizable of them is the 19’ by 18’ kitchen with white fitted units with integrated appliances, five arched windows and red-brick walls with a raised stove. Decorated country kitchen style, it even has a rocking chair by the stove.
There’s also a spacious timber floor living room with a fireplace as wall as a large family room which has a stove fireplace with a stove. To the rear there’s a guest bathroom, a utility, a guest WC and a large master bedroom with an en suite.
Although it’s built to look like a single storey lodge, the property does have rooms upstairs.
A spiral staircase in the hallway leads up to a landing with timber ceiling beams.
At this level there are two large timber-floor bedrooms with Velux windows and a bathroom.
The grounds are mostly at the front and sides although there is a patio at the rear and a double garage at the side. Planted with mature trees, shrubs and hedges the lawned gardens are very well maintained.
Located at Rockhouse Bridge, the property is five miles from Bandon and within a short distance of Kilmacsimon which has a boat yard, a rowing club and pub.
