Glenarough home offers breathtaking views of Beara Peninsula
A good eye, and an ability to use a paint brush and roller, give the inside of this neat-as-a-pin bungalow home a bit of a visual lift.
The setting is breathtaking, towards the far end of West Cork’s Beara Peninsula, near a pier, beaches, and the cable car ride to Dursey island.
The 1,000sq ft three-bed home at Glenarough, Lehanmore has been extended to the front, now opening via a small sun-room to a simple deck-full width of the house for view taking, and inside all is white walls, white-painted floors, and the odd splash of colour.
The ground floor is quite open plan, with 27’ by 14’ living room with stove linking in front to a dining section under the sun-room’s ceiling Velux and by double doors to the deck.
Across the front then is a simple kitchen with open display wall units and cupboards painted a pale lime green.
There’s a double aspect in each of these ground floor rooms, fields to the side and back, sea to the front.
This home, for holidays as for permanent use, is on 1.3 acres with paddock, glass house, garage/fuel store, and includes the remnants of an old, stone Famine-era cottage.
A few minutes’ walk is Beara’s Garnish pier and boat slip, with two sandy beaches.
Joint selling agents for this €285,000 property, Charles P McCarthy in Skibbereen and Harrington Estates in Bantry say it’s “one one of the most beautiful stretches along the Wild Atlantic Way.”
