LOCATED IN BALLYLICKEY in West Cork, this four-bed property offers space and light in an idyllic setting.
On the market for €475,000, the bungalow is a stone’s throw from the coast and boasts uninterrupted views of Bantry Bay.
It sits on an impressive two-acre site with an orchard and mature gardens, plus a large heated swimming pool for the days you don’t fancy taking a dip in the sea.
The bungalow was built in 1930 and extended in 1984, and has been very well kept over the years.
The accommodation features a warm and welcoming feel throughout, with an abundance of natural light in the large living areas and bedrooms. With a few updates and modern additions, the interior would truly shine.
The heart of the home is the highly impressive main lounge area which features vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and a feature fireplace. Multiple picture windows overlook the surrounding greenery. The dining room adjoins this space, while there’s also a separate bar.
The kitchen and another living space make up the sunroom, which opens to a sunny veranda. The sunroom has a chalet-style feel, and could be easily updated to maximise the use of the space.
There are two double bedrooms and two single bedrooms at the property. Both double bedrooms feature en suite bathrooms, while the main bathroom includes a corner bath. A utility room and a cloakroom complete the main accommodation.
A large patio overlooks the outdoor pool and boasts views of the water, making for the perfect spot to unwind on a sunny summer’s day.
Separately, there’s a 2,000 sq ft workshop on the grounds. This workshop is divided into many parts, including an artist’s studio, engineering workshop, a garage, an office and a mezzanine studio. Each room has a radiator, while the roof is insulated aluminium.
While set in a quiet, rural location, the bungalow is a short walk from a small supermarket, with a primary school within a five-minute drive. Slightly further afield, both Bantry and Glengarriff can be reached by car in 10 minutes.
With some of West Cork’s best spots on its doorstep, plus scenic views and an admirable interior, the new owners of this Ballylickey home are sure to find plenty to enjoy.
