Rock house is definitely unique, due to its location, history and position. This 4 bedroom detached 3 storey house is on the watersedge with its own private slip, boat house and deep water mooring. Ideal for the yachty or golfer (Oldhead of Kinsale international golf course is just 5 mins. drive away).

The seller will consider part-exchange up to €500,000.

When you are in the house one is taken aback by the breathtaking water views and sound of the water, even on a windy night the howling wind makes one feel very cosy and secure. The house is a converted grainary which was built in 1840 and was used to store grain during the famine ( the maize they stored was red in colour hence the house has always been red). The house was also used for smuggling as the schooner ships could come in Sandycove quite easily. However, by the time the customs officials arrived they were long gone as the customs were located in Kinsale town.

Accommodation briefly consists of – fitted kitchen, guest loo, open plan sitting room and dining room. First floor – 3 bedrooms (1 with ensuite) and main bathroom fully tiled. Basement – bedroom 4 ( family room) with patio doors to the patio and slip, bathroom and access to the garage which as a loo ( could be converted). By the front door there is an external terrace which one could do plenty with. It is a fine house oozing with possibilities. One of a kind and a "must see"!
