Dive into Ballycotton at the Depp end

East Cork coastal village back in wealthy buyers' spotlight, 25 years after Marlon Brando, Johnny Depp and John Hurt lolled around shooting the aborted movie Divine Rapture

Altair, Ballycotton, Co. Cork

What's the fate for this seaside property called Altair, on a prime half an acre of sea-scanning land within the picturesque and scenically-set East Cork village of Ballycotton?

Pleasantly-sited, it’s a home with a history that goes back almost 200 years, from humble origins as an estate cottage, to 1970s growth and ‘reimagining’ as a split level bungalow, with the sea views the barely-changing constant to this property’s presence.
