LOCATED JUST A 15-minute drive from Cork city, The Courtyard is a four-bedroom family home.

Aptly named, the property boasts a private sun-trapped courtyard which can be accessed from each of the four bedrooms. Originally constructed in 2006, the residence was completely transformed within the last year to showcase a modern design and updated features, including underfloor heating.

Unusually, the entrance hallway opens to the first floor of the 2,720 sq ft home, which features the open-plan kitchen and dining area, the living room, utility room and bathroom.

Roof and picture windows flood the kitchen with natural light, while the sleek design by Kube to include plenty of storage means appliances can be tucked away and the counters can be kept free. 

For those who like to unwind in peace, the lounge is accessed separately via a spiral staircase from the kitchen. Here, there is a herringbone walnut timber floor and a wood-burning stove, while sliding doors open to a balcony.

On the ground floor, there are four double bedrooms, including the master bedroom, and a family bathroom. Three of the bedrooms feature fitted wardrobes, while two enjoy timber flooring. A double garage with an electric roller door provides further storage.

Outside, the property has been future-proofed and includes Donegal quartz on the external facade. The accommodation surrounds three sides of the courtyard, which is paved with Indian sandstone. 

Situated off Rochestown Road, The Courtyard is a short stroll from Douglas River, while Douglas and Mahon Point are each just a five-minute drive away.

The Courtyard, Rochestown Road, Rochestown, Cork city suburbs is on the market for €790,000 through Lisney via Daft.ie.
