There is a school nearby but let’s talk the real amenities. This four-bed detached home at Drombeg is just 2km from Glandore which means sea breezes and swims at nearby beaches such as Tralong or the Terrace Strand. And this 1930s-built home is also only 1.3km from the megalithic (Bronze Age) Drombeg Stone Circle.

Back at the house which is only across the road from the Catholic St Fachtna’s Church, you’ve got mature gardens and fields on three sides.

Owned by the same family for generations it’s now on the market for €385k and attracting interest predominantly from buyers living in the Clonakilty area as well some enquires from people living in the US who have ties to Ireland, notes agent Keith O’Sullivan of Hodnett Forde Property Services.

It's a short 4km spin to Rosscarbery and you're 70k from Cork city and airport. 

The house itself has been extended several times over the years and now has three separate-ish living rooms as well as a kitchen/dining room. Two of the living rooms are connected by an arched opening.

Upstairs are the three double and one single bedroom. There's a sheltered and sunny side patio before you reach steps to the elevated gardens. 

VERDICT: A rural and spacious home just minutes from sea swims, megalithic sights, and vibrant village life.
