Kinsale continues to live among the global elite of hot property markets

Raffeen House sort of set the trend for a big jump in premium Kinsale homes when it sold over two year ago for €4.75m to an oversas buyer and boat lover.
Munster has a few ‘micro-markets,’ spots in most counties where precise locations command premium property prices that leave even adjoining parishes trailing far behind in their wake.
Think Dingle in Kerry, Adare in Limerick, along Lough Derg in Tipperary, Dunmore East and Woodstown in Waterford, Lahinch in Clare — and, surprise, surprise, Kinsale in Cork.
