Description

Brian Gleeson Property proudly presents a generational opportunity to acquire one of Ardmore's most distinctive coastal residences.

Perched in a commanding position overlooking Ardmore Bay, Cloghrhu is an elegant early-1900s home of exceptional character, scale, and provenance, offering panoramic sea views, mature gardens, and the rare privilege of owning a landmark property in the heart of one of Ireland's most treasured seaside villages.

Steeped in heritage and atmosphere, this remarkable residence captures the timeless charm of Ardmore; a picturesque coastal village renowned for its ancient round tower, cathedral, scenic cliff walks and vibrant food and hospitality scene.

Behind its graceful façade lies a wonderfully proportioned family home extending across generous accommodation including an entrance hall, elegant drawing room, formal dining room, office, kitchen with adjoining pantry & larder, traditional oil-fired Aga, utility room, and WC. Upstairs comprises four bedrooms, a main bathroom, and attic access.

Large bay windows in the drawing room, dining room, and principal bedroom frame spectacular views across Ardmore Bay, filling the interiors with natural light and an ever-changing coastal backdrop. The property further benefits from mature gardens, parking, and a substantial garage.

While now requiring refurbishment and modernisation, Cloghrhu offers extraordinary potential for a discerning purchaser to restore and reimagine a truly special home. Its strong architectural bones, unrivalled setting, and historic charm combine to create a compelling opportunity to craft an exceptional permanent residence, refined holiday retreat, or elegant work-from-home sanctuary by the sea.

Properties of this calibre and position rarely come to market in Ardmore. Eligible for the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant, this is a unique opportunity to secure not only a home, but a lasting piece of coastal heritage.

Lifestyle offerings abound nearby, including the celebrated Ardmore Cliff Walk, sailing and water sports, and acclaimed local destinations such as Cliff House Hotel, The White Horses, the Round Tower Hotel, and beloved village favourites Urchin and Keevers Bar. The bustling seaside towns of Youghal and Dungarvan are both within easy reach, while Cork and Cork Airport are accessible within an hour.

With stunning nearby beaches including Curragh, Ballyquin, Goat Island, and Whiting Bay just minutes away, Cloghrhu represents an extraordinary lifestyle opportunity on Ireland's coveted south coast.
