Rather than 'the right side of the road' you could be on the right side of the bay at this four-bed detached Kilbrittain house. Springfield at Lisheenaleen is more easily described as right over the water from Courtmacsherry village and the beautiful woods which were planted in the 18th century.

And with an elevated site you’re not overlooked and instead can survey the fields, water and hills across the way while still being only an eight-minute drive from charming Timoleague and 14 minutes from lively Courtmacsherry village.

The house was built in 1990 and has two living rooms, a separate kitchen and dining rooms and a self-contained apartment on two levels. The bedroom on the ground level is en suite. Upstairs are three more bedrooms, one of which is also en suite.

“You could call this the more tranquil and restful side of Courtmacsherry Harbour and what’s so lovely is you’ve got panoramic 360° views taking in both land and sea,” notes agent Frank O’Driscoll of Hodnett Forde who has seen interest from people living in the Clonakilty area, in Cork City, and from overseas too.

The more local viewers are typically eyeing this as a permanent family home with viewers from England and Germany keen to get a summer home that’s only 40km from Cork Airport.

VERDICT: A secluded feeling thanks to an elevated position but it’s not remote at all.
