Generous proportions, an enviable orientation, and a peaceful cul-de-sac location make 2 Clogheen Grove an attractive arrival to the West Cork property market.

Guided at €535,000, this impressive four-bedroom, four-bathroom family home in Clonakilty spans 166 sq m and has been beautifully decorated and maintained by its current owners for more than a decade.

Opportunities in this private enclave are rare — the house next door sold for €495k last year and before that there wasn’t even a handful of Clogheen Grove sales across the past 10 years.

Adding to its undeniable appeal... there’s a direct pedestrian link to the popular Clonakilty Park Hoteltarget="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">, giving effortless access to its leisure centre, cinema, adventure mini golf, and bar and dining facilities. Or you could always take the ‘long’ way round with a 1.6km spin in the car. Getting into the heart of Clonakilty isn’t a hassle either as it’s only a kilometre away.

Back in this four-bed semi-detached house you’ve got a good-sized living room and a playroom/office at the front of the ground floor. To the rear is a large open-plan kitchen/dining room with attractive forest-green cabinetry. From here there’s double-door access to a sheltered patio with seven steps leading up to an elevated south-facing , generous back garden.

Here there’s a very handy garden room which could be a cosy den, extra office space or home gym.


Upstairs are four double rooms, two of which are ensuite. And there’s Stira access to the floored attic which new owners could look at converting to more living or bedroom space.


“It’s got location, it’s got size, it’s got a great layout, great orientation and it’s in a cul-de-sac,” notes Mark Kelly of Hodnett Forde.

Interest so far is coming from people living locally who are keen to trade up, with some enquiries coming from Dublin and overseas.

VERDICT: An ideal blend of polished family living and location perks.
