Description

Set across approximately 16 acres of breathtaking countryside, this property offers a rare opportunity to acquire a secluded rural haven just minutes from the vibrant village of Schull and the beautiful shoreline of West Cork.
At the heart of the property lies a charming traditional farmhouse positioned on circa 5.5 acres. Accessed via a private track from the main road, the home enjoys total privacy, surrounded by unspoiled nature and is bordered by streams on three sides. Adjacent to the farmhouse is a series of characterful stone outbuildings offering excellent potential for conversion or redevelopment.
The natural beauty of this holding is exceptional. There is a pond with waterfalls beneath a rocky cliff. Nearby a spring-fed lake flows over rock into a lower pond, home to small brown trout, adding to its ecological charm.
A short distance across the land lies The Lodge, a second traditional farmhouse set on approx. 10.5 acres. Though requiring complete renovation, it has the potential to be a guesthouse, a creative studio, or secondary residence. It enjoys separate access via its own roadway, or by foot via one of four footbridges connecting it to the main house.
One of the most remarkable features of this property is the southern hemisphere-style garden, extending across approximately three acres, nestled in a sheltered, sunken position along a stream. The garden benefits from a rare microclimate and deep black soil, fostering an exceptional range of unusual and mature planting and dominated by different species of Eucalyptus and Mimosa.

Features:
A rare opportunity to buy two houses and 16 acres of natural rural hinterland.
