Light-filled woodland retreat in vibrant West Cork for €280k
The current owner has a keen eye for design – and is known for saying ‘yes’ to the dress.
IF YOU’RE LOOKING to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, Tree House in Courtmacsherry, Co Cork, might just offer the ideal solution.
Refurbished and extended in 2014, the three-bed property is currently owned by wedding expert Franc and his family. Say Yes To The House, anyone?
A charming residence, Tree House is situated in a tranquil wooded location just outside the seaside village of Courtmacsherry. The property is designed with a reverse layout to maximise its beautiful surroundings, meaning the living areas are on the first floor and the bedrooms are on the ground floor.
The first floor enjoys an open-plan layout and is bright and spacious as a result, with French doors opening from the kitchen to the raised decking area, which is surrounded by woodland.
A second decking area provides further room to dine and entertain outdoors. Beyond the decking areas is a mature garden with further space to sit and unwind.
Built-in on one wall, the kitchen features a double ceramic sink, stainless steel work top, exposed shelving and a centre island. Velux windows in the kitchen and living area fill the space with light, while the polished maple floor and ornate timber fireplace add a warm and cosy feel. Handcrafted doors and hand-built furniture throughout the property add to its character.
On the ground floor, there are two double bedrooms and one single bedroom. The master bedroom benefits from French doors leading to the garden, an exposed stone feature, en-suite bathroom and built-in wardrobe. A family bathroom completes the ground floor accommodation.
Despite its tranquil location giving the impression that the property is far removed from society, Tree House is just a 10-minute walk away from Courtmacsherry village and its beach, pubs, shops and restaurants.
