Description

A diamond in the rough: this modest stone cottage with 2.36 acres is a secret retreat where charm, character and opportunity come together in the countryside. Tucked away in a sheltered hollow of West Cork, this traditional stone-built cottage sits quietly on 2.36 acres, waiting for someone to breathe new life into its walls. Modest in scale, with just 670 sq. ft. including the garage and store room, it offers something far greater than numbers can suggest, a glimpse into a simpler time, where every detail feels steeped in old-world character. The ground rises gently around the cottage, wrapping it in a natural embrace of trees and greenery, creating a sense of privacy and quiet seclusion. Here, the cottage feels less like a building and more like a secret retreat, hidden in plain sight and brimming with possibilities. Its unpolished charm is its greatest asset, a diamond in the rough where you can restore, reshape, and reimagine without undoing anyone else’s imprint. Practicalities have not been overlooked either, the roof appears to have been replaced in recent years, easing the path for renovation, while its vacant status means it qualifies for the vacant property grant. With 2.36 acres to call your own, the scope is wide, from orchard and gardens to extensions or creative outdoor spaces, there is room to make it so much more than simply a home. Despite its rural feel, the location is enviably convenient. The much-loved coastal villages of Union Hall, Leap and Glandore are just minutes away, Skibbereen town lies within 7.5km, and Cork city and airport are approximately 70km. Whether as a full-time residence, a holiday retreat, or a project with imagination, this is an affordable opportunity with broad appeal, a place where you can begin modestly and let it grow alongside your vision. Services: Private well, high speed broadband in the area and electricity connected. **Copy this link for a fully interactive virtual tour: https://tours.hol.ie/brade/
