Opis:

A Unique Coastal Property.

Built in 1885, this former national school has had a long and very interesting history. After it closed as Union Hall National School, it was converted into a hostel and operated successfully for many years.

In 2007, it was purchased by a local couple who have transformed it into the most wonderful family home.

It has been sympathetically renovated while keeping all the charm and character of its previous incarnation. The main feature of this property is the sense of space and light when you walk into the living accommodation, it is literally breath-taking, though never over bearing, as the clever use of original features such as the partition doors and wainscoted walls, give it a very warm and homely feel.

Set on c. 1 acre, of beautifully landscaped grounds, with a mixture of lawn, mature trees, shrubs and flowering plants . There is also a private sun terrace to the side of the property which takes advantage of the undulating countryside aspect.

The School House is located close to many hidden coves and beaches and less than one-mile from Reen pier which is very popular with both kayakers and sailors. Across the harbour from Reen is Castletownshend, which is a quintessential Victorian village, one of the most unique and picturesque places in West Cork.

Union Hall village is only a short walk from the property, it is a thriving community with a strong fishing tradition where there is a shop, post office, pubs, restaurants, cafe and a school.

Across the bay lies Glandore (Harbour of the Oaks) one of the most sought after destinations in west Cork, it is a popular sailing centre and has pubs, restaurants and a hotel.

Cork airport is c.1 hour’s drive. Skibbereen (market town) is approx 15 minute’s drive where there are a host of public amenities.

This is fabulous offering to the market and will appeal to any discerning buyer.
