There's a 16th century castle for sale in Cork - just in time for Halloween
And it’s definitely not haunted… Definitely not.
THIS TUDOR CASTLE in Cork retains its imposing charm even with all its modern refurbishments and upgrades.
Carrigrohane Castle, Carrigrohane, Co Cork is for sale for €1,500,000 with Cohalan Downing via Daft.ie.
The six-bedroom property has approximately five acres of land including woodland surrounding it, and has four floors over a basement – so there’s lots of space to rattle around in.
Entering the property, the entrance hall has a stone fireplace and beamed ceiling. There are double doors leading to the minstrels’ gallery (but of course) over the dining room which also features a carved stone fireplace complete with an Irish coat of arms. Through the French doors in the dining room are the battlements and a view of the river and countryside surrounds.
Across the entrance hall are double doors to a study, cloakroom, the kitchen and access to the basement/games room.
The kitchen has fully-fitted pine units, Italian glazed tiled worktops and an oil-fired Aga. There is a fully-fitted bar with marble fireplace and panelled walls.
Upstairs there is a library and drawing room with high ceilings and carved timber wooden architraves to the doors and windows. The library has a black marble fireplace and a beamed ceiling while the drawing room features a carved stone fireplace.
On the second floor are the bedrooms – the master bedroom has two turrets that have been converted into an en-suite bathroom and a walk in wardrobe each. There are two other bedrooms on this floor, one en-suite and one with a fitted wardrobe.
On the third floor are the other three bedrooms, a bathroom, sitting room and sun lounge.
The basement has a games room as well as a wine cellar and a modern central heating boiler is located there also.
