Inchydoney, West Cork, €395,000

You’re set back just a bit from the best of the views to be had over Inchydoney Beach (often rated as one of Ireland’s most popular) at this seaside home up for sale, but while it just lacks beach and ocean views, the upside is a bit more tranquillity, and one of the larger sites to be had in the West Cork coastal setting, an hour from city and airport.

Newly listed with Clonakilty estate agent Henry O’Leary (check his dramatic drone videos online) is this two-sectioned bungalow, on a half acre on the brow of a hill at Inchydoney.

It has some water views from the property towards the estuary/Dunmore to the west, and to Clonakilty Bay and the town itself to the north: there’s a pleasant walk to Clon town via the hill and causeway route, while glorious, golden Inchydoney beach and dunes are only a few minutes downhill from this c 1,550 sq ft four-bed modern home.
