McCarthy McGrath are delighted to offer a beautifully restored 4 bedroom 2 bathroom Victorian townhouse which spans an impressive C.283 sq. m. on four levels over basement and private rear garden in one of the most stunning locations in Cork. Built c. 1855, this landmark home is most conveniently located and enjoys panoramic views over the iconic promenade and Cork Harbour. The building forms part of an elegant waterside terrace designed under the master plan of legendary 19th-century architect Decimus Burton. This is an exceptional home of history and distinctive period detailing combining enormous character in the traditional Victorian townhouse style with all the comforts and conveniences one could wish for. Reflecting a significant investment by its current owner, the main four floors have undergone extensive restoration work and are presented in splendid condition. The roof has been replaced, the original timber floors have been beautifully restored, and the character of the era shines through carefully preserved marble and cast-iron fireplaces. The layout spans five levels, including a lower ground floor with independent front access. While the upper four levels are completely restored, this lower ground floor represents a development opportunity, allowing the new owner the flexibility to create separate accommodation or integrate it into the main house. To the rear of the ground floor lies a spacious and entirely private walled garden. This peaceful outdoor space is currently gravelled for low maintenance. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a substantial period home, offering an abundance of character, generous living space and private garden superbly renovated and ready for modern living.
