Description

2 Hollymount is a truly unique home, nestled in a tranquil setting just minutes from the bustle of Cork city. Tucked away along the sought-after Lee Road, Mount Desert and occupying an elevated position overlooking the River Lee, this charming two-bedroom residence offers a rare blend of character, privacy and convenience. Originally forming part of a grand Victorian residence dating back to the 1850s, the property was thoughtfully subdivided into four individual homes in the 1960s, creating a distinctive and atmospheric setting that is rich in history and charm. The property was reroofed in 2022. Beyond the entrance gates, a private driveway provides parking for two cars and includes an electric vehicle charging point. Steps lead to the front door, where an entrance hallway welcomes you. Double doors open into an impressive living room, where soaring 11-foot ceilings create a wonderful sense of space and grandeur. This elegant room sits at the heart of the home and leads through to the dining room, with additional access to under-stairs storage and the main bathroom. The dining room flows naturally into the kitchen and onwards to the rear yard. Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms, while the landing provides additional storage space. The real magic of 2 Hollymount lies in its setting. Enjoying the peace and privacy of a countryside retreat yet located within a short drive of both the city centre and surrounding suburbs, it offers the best of both worlds. With its period character and enviable riverside position, this is a home unlike any other. This is a home that truly must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
