Accommodation

The main house has recently been completely renovated and upgraded turning a standard bungalow into this contemporary retreat. It spans c. 193 sqm, showcasing a blend of utilitarian and natural design. Polished Mastic Asphalt floors reflect light and enhance openness, while exposed plywood accents introduce natural texture and add warmth. Exposed brick walls complement the minimalistic style. The main area boasts an inviting open-plan design, seamlessly integrating a well-appointed kitchen, comfortable living area, and dining space. Natural light floods the space through large windows and glass sliding doors that open to the exterior, showcasing magnificent ocean views from every angle of the living area. A large insert fireplace adds a fabulous touch to the living area providing warmth and a cozy atmosphere. The property includes three well-appointed bedrooms. The large master bedroom en-suite features a wood-burning stove, private entrance, and a versatile loft area. Large sliding doors grant access to the garden and the beach and offer beautiful sea views. The second bedroom accesses the main family bathroom, designed as a jack-and-jill between the hallway and the bedroom. The third bedroom, currently a study, offers additional flexibility. The luxurious family bathroom boasts a spacious free-standing bath and dual sinks, complemented by a guest WC off the main living area. The home has a superb Building Energy Rating of B1, a result of a geo-thermal heat pump, underfloor heating throughout and triple-glazed windows. Externally, this unique property features a large recently restored outbuilding of c. 288 sqm that holds significant potential for conversion (subject to the necessary planning permissions for change of use), making it an ideal opportunity for various projects or possibly ancillary living space. Featuring large window fronts the workshop soaks in the natural light and the beautiful sea views and would cater as an ideal creative space. There is also a smaller workshop sitting on edge of the property right on the waterfront currently used as an office space. The large site is left mostly in its natural state and features beautiful walks along rocky outcrops, green hills offering stunning views to the Atlantic Ocean and the Skellig Rocks and a secluded pebbled beach. The now disused lobster ponds are a unique feature and would make for a wonderful sea water pool. The picturesque natural ponds and direct access to the water provide a serene backdrop, enhancing the allure of this property as a perfect retreat or tranquil hideaway. Whether you're a water sport enthusiast, seeking a peaceful escape or a creative venture, this property presents an abundance of possibilities to explore.
