Description
Situated on an elevated site amidst stunning natural beauty, Draíocht na Scealg provides uninterrupted, breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean, Puffin Island, and The Skelligs. Located along Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way just a few miles from the Ring of Kerry, this home is located in a serene and private setting. The beautiful sandy beach of St. Finan's Bay, the popular Driftwood Restaurant, Ballinskelligs village and beach and the scenic fishing village of Portmagee, complete with pubs and restaurants, are also nearby.
With a total floor area of c. 103 sqm and a site of c. 1.1 acres, the property offers great space inside and outside. The home was originally built in the 1980's and has been well maintained by its current owners, it would, however, benefit from modernisation. It has been thoughtfully designed incorporating large window fronts all around the house to maximize natural light and embrace the stunning coastal vistas.
The main living room is bright and spacious, featuring custom floor-to-ceiling bay windows that frame the surrounding scenery. A charming stone open fireplace adds a cozy touch to the space.
Adjacent to the living room, you'll find a generously sized kitchen and dining area, both benefiting from large bespoke windows that let in plenty of light and showcase the views. The kitchen is fully equipped with wooden units, and the dining table is strategically placed near the expansive windows to enjoy the beautiful landscape. Additionally, there is a separate utility room conveniently located just across the hallway.
The home presents three well appointed bedrooms, each equipped with built-in wardrobes, providing ample storage space. The master bedroom is ensuite. All bedrooms feature large windows, allowing for plenty of natural light and lovely views. A large family bathroom completed the floor space.
The property is situated on c. 1.1 acre and the exterior is mainly laid to lawn, providing ample outdoor space and the driveway offers plenty of room for parking. This area is celebrated for its rugged beauty and abundance of outdoor activities, making it an ideal location for both a permanent residence and a holiday retreat.
Location:
The property is located on the beautiful coast line of St Finian's Bay and is within a short distance of the beach and the villages of Ballinskelligs and Portmagee. Ballinskelligs and Portmagee are both beautiful seaside villages along the coast of Kerry. Caherciveen town is only 15 minutes away by car and offers plenty shopping facilities, cafes, restaurants and bars while the larger towns of Killorglin and Killarney can be reached in c. 1 hour and 1.5 hours, respectively.
The property is within easy reach to the airports in Cork, Shannon and Kerry which offer direct transport links within Ireland as well as to Europe and the UK.
The immediate vicinity is ideal for sailing, walking, fishing or playing golf. Various championship golf courses such as Dooks Golf Course and Waterville Golf Course, which are some of the best courses in Ireland, are close by.
