Site For Sale: Lispatrick, Old Head, Kinsale, Co. Cork

A spectacular site of 1.13 acres with full planning permission for an architecturally designed, 4-bed family home with a double garage and no local housing need requirement, in a stunning location just footsteps from the beach.

Set on one of West Cork’s most captivating stretches of coastline, this exceptional site of approximately 1.13 acres presents a rare and compelling opportunity to create a truly distinctive home in an area of outstanding natural beauty. Occupying a prime position on the renowned Old Head of Kinsale, the property enjoys an enviable setting along the celebrated 6km coastal loop walk between Garretstown Beach and The Speckled Door, where rolling farmland meets the Atlantic in a landscape that is both dramatic and scenic.

Offered with the benefit of full planning permission, the site allows for the construction of a striking architect-designed four-bedroom residence extending to almost 3,000 sq. ft., complemented by a detached double garage. The approved design is both elegant and contemporary, thoughtfully composed to sit comfortably within its surroundings while maximising light, aspect and connection to the outdoors. The house artfully pairs traditional gabled silhouettes with the sophisticated texture of charred black larch cladding, creating a home that is as visually compelling as the headland itself. Generous glazing, clean lines and a refined palette of materials combine to create a home of real architectural presence, with a layout designed for modern family living, including expansive open-plan reception spaces and well-balanced bedroom accommodation.

What sets this offering apart is not only the quality of the design and the scale of the site, but the rarity of its planning status. The absence of a local housing need requirement is a significant advantage in such a sought-after coastal location, opening the door to a wide range of purchasers seeking either a permanent residence or a refined retreat by the sea.

The setting is nothing short of exceptional. Just footsteps from the beach, the property enjoys immediate access to some of the finest coastal scenery in the country, with sandy beaches, cliff walks and panoramic ocean views all on the doorstep. Despite its peaceful coastal setting, the vibrant harbour town of Kinsale is within a convenient 10km drive, offering renowned restaurants, shops and cultural attractions, while Cork Airport is easily reached within approximately 32km.

This is a place where architecture and landscape come together in perfect harmony, it's a site of scale, presence and privilege, offering the opportunity to create a home as remarkable as its surroundings.

FOR SALE: Seaview Farm, Kilbrittain, Bandon, West Cork, P72 X316

A handsome five-bedroom period residence with stables and traditional outbuildings, enjoying a coastal setting within walking distance of the beach, offered with approximately 10 acres, with two additional land lots of about 9 acres and 5.5 acres available.

A rare opportunity to acquire a historic country home in a private and elevated setting, with sweeping views, charming outbuildings and land offering exceptional flexibility. Steeped in equestrian heritage, Seaview Farm was the birthplace of the renowned Coosheen Connemara Pony Stud, founded here in 1960. Among its champions was the celebrated stallion Coosheen Finn, chosen in 1997 as the outstanding breeding stallion of his day and later honoured on an Irish postage stamp.

The period residence, believed to date back some 300 years, has retained its grace and character while evolving into a warm and practical family home. Recently fitted sash windows enhance the front façade, and from its prominent position the house enjoys fine views across the surrounding land, which gently falls away to the west. Extending to approximately 2,500 sq. ft., the accommodation strikes a pleasing balance between period elegance and everyday comfort, offering a layout well suited to modern family life.

Two well-proportioned reception rooms sit to the front of the house, each typical of their era in scale and style. To the rear, a kitchen and office provide everyday practicality, while to the side a living room and conservatory enjoy a sunny southerly aspect overlooking the gardens. Upstairs, five bedrooms and two bathrooms provide generous family accommodation, with a further bathroom conveniently located on the ground floor.

Beyond the house lies a courtyard of traditional stone-built stables and farm buildings, rich in character and history. A sheltered orchard, dotted with fruit trees and berry bushes, nestles to the rear, while small paddocks surrounding the residence add to the sense of privacy and rural charm.

Extending in total to approximately 24.5 acres, the period house is offered with approximately 10 acres surrounding the residence, together with two additional land lots of about 9 acres and 5.5 acres, each capable of being purchased individually or in combination, appealing to both residential and land-only purchasers. The residence is approached via a long private driveway, creating an attractive and discreet arrival through mature trees before opening into the courtyard. A second access, formerly the original entrance opposite the local school, provides additional convenience and flexibility.

Seaview Farm combines the romance of a period estate with the practicality of modern convenience. The school lies quite literally at the gate, the beach at Howe Strand is a short walk away, the village of Kilbrittain is just 5km away, the towns of Kinsale and Bandon are within easy reach and Cork city and airport are just 35km away, ensuring this rural haven remains well connected.

Services: Private well, septic tank, oil fired central heating and high speed broadband is available.

Farmland for sale at Ballyriree, Leap, West Cork - 51.599852, -9.186289

8.52 Acres in two plots offering privacy, shelter, and peace, ideal for a neighbouring farmer or a town dweller with a taste for green space and weekend freedom.

Tucked away in a quiet hollow of the West Cork countryside, this charming parcel of farmland is a true escape from the rush of everyday life. Spread across two separate plots and framed by mature forestry, it offers a sense of seclusion that’s becoming hard to find.

The smaller field, a neat and fertile 2.17 acres, lies beside a Coillte forest roadway, a perfect little paddock, rectangular, level, and all in grass. With a warm southerly aspect and shelter from the north and west, it’s a peaceful spot for grazing, small-scale cultivation, or simply breathing in the country air.

The larger plot, extending to 6.35 acres, enjoys an even more private setting. Gently sloping to the south, it’s bordered on three sides by tall trees, creating a natural haven of quiet and calm. Around three acres would benefit from some attention to bring it fully into use, but for anyone with a bit of energy and vision, it holds potential.

The two plots are separated by just 120 metres, linked by a registered right-of-way along a quiet country lane. Despite its privacy, the location is surprisingly convenient , Leap village is only 6 km away, Skibbereen 12 km, and both Clonakilty and Dunmanway can be reached in about 25 minutes.

Whether added to a neighbouring farm or enjoyed by an urban dweller seeking space for hobby farming, tree planting or weekend projects, this land offers more than just acres, it offers freedom. A place where time slows, the air feels fresher, and the best part of your week begins.
