Some jobs you’d take on with a heart and a half — that’s for sure with this Crosshaven home. While Villaflor at Weaver’s Point is in need of modernisation and refurbishment, it would hardly feel like a chore at all if you could see views like this every time you look up from painting or tiling.

You really couldn’t get more waterfront... check out the uninterrupted sea views from the house as well as from the tiered gardens.

Directions to this property might sound like it’s in the middle of nowhere — head up through Templebreedy from Crosshaven and past the turning point for Church Bay and on to Weaver’s Point — and indeed map apps don’t do ‘streetview’ here. But it’s only 1.9km to Crosshaven, a 15-minute spin to Carrigaline, and 20km to the airport. On the skyline you have views of Roche’s Point with blue seas below that. Up closer you have New Zealand flax and echium peeping in the window.

Indoors, the decor is of ‘swirly carpet’ vintage but it would be lovely to have the chance to put your own style in place here.

“We’ve had enquiries from people locally, from Dublin and abroad and we’ve just started viewings,” says Adrianna Hegarty of Hegarty Properties.

You’ve got Crosshaven just down the hill with its Royal Cork Yacht Club, sailing, swimming, scenic coastal walks, beaches, cafés, and restaurants.

“From sunrise over the harbour to the movement of sailing boats across the water, the outlook is nothing short of spectacular, making this a property where the location truly takes centre stage," notes agent Adrianna Hegarty.

VERDICT: A waterfront dream awaiting a personal touch
