Ard Alainn, The Highlands, Glounthaune, Cork, T45CA43, Ireland

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a beautiful four-bedroom detached home on approximately half an acre, surrounded by mature trees and greenery. Ard Alainn offers stunning, uninterrupted views over Cork Harbour and combines the space and solid construction of a 1970s build with immense potential for modernisation.

Generously proportioned, the property provides a wonderful balance of living and bedroom accommodation. The layout includes a porch, entrance hallway, four bedrooms (one ensuite), a main bathroom, kitchen, two bright and inviting living rooms, an attached garage, and a gable-to-gable floored attic.

Externally, the property sits proudly on approximately 0.5 acre private site. To the front, a sweeping driveway leads to the house, complemented by a lawn and framed by mature trees and shrubbery for added privacy. To the rear, the extensive south-facing, tiered garden takes full advantage of the panoramic harbour views. Direct access from both reception rooms opens onto a paved patio that runs the length of the property, ideal for al fresco dining or summer barbecues. The first lawned tier provides generous outdoor space, while the second, edged with mature trees and shrubs, offers further versatility. A third tier, also lawned, could easily accommodate a log cabin, garden studio, or vegetable plot, perfect for children or adults to enjoy.

Location is another key feature of Ard Alainn. Nestled in a peaceful enclave just seconds from Glounthaune village, the property offers the feel of a countryside retreat with all amenities close at hand. Within walking distance you'll find Glounthaune National School (120m), the church and bus stop (800m), the village pub (850m), and the local shop and deli (1km). The train station is just 1.5km away, while Harpers Island Nature Reserve is only 2km. For commuters, the N25, Jack Lynch Tunnel, and Cork City Centre are a short drive, ensuring excellent connectivity.

This exceptional property combines space, privacy, and location in one offering. Viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate all that Ard Alainn has to offer.
