Cork Offered Subject to Planning Permission POA — Price on Application Maps and further particulars are available on request from Irish Rural Homes. Irish Rural Homes is pleased to offer for sale this attractive parcel of land extending to approximately 0.71 hectares (1.76 acres), subject to confirmation. Set within the beautiful countryside surrounding Glengarriff, the property enjoys a wonderfully private and sheltered setting, with mature trees, areas of open grassland, a mountain backdrop and a river running alongside the lower section of the land. The property has its own gated vehicular entrance. The land slopes from the higher ground near the entrance towards the lower riverside section, offering a varied and particularly scenic natural setting. Traditional Stone Structure An important feature of the property is the old roofed stone structure situated on the land, which is understood locally to have been a former famine-era cottage. The building retains traditional stone walls and considerable character, although it is presently in need of complete restoration. It offers an interesting feature for a purchaser with an appreciation for traditional West Cork buildings. No representation or warranty is given regarding its previous residential use, structural condition, planning status or suitability for restoration, conversion or replacement. Interested parties must carry out their own investigations and obtain independent planning, architectural and legal advice. The presence of the stone structure should not be taken as confirmation that permission will be granted to restore, convert, extend or replace it. Site Potential The property is being offered subject to the purchaser obtaining the necessary planning permission. The higher portion of the land, close to the entrance and stone structure, may offer potential for a carefully designed dwelling, subject to planning permission, site suitability and all necessary technical assessments. Existing houses and electricity infrastructure are located nearby. However, the availability and cost of electricity, water, wastewater treatment and all other services must be independently confirmed by the purchaser. A site suitability assessment, percolation testing, drainage assessment and appropriate consideration of the nearby river will be required as part of any proposed development. Rural housing eligibility, local housing need and other planning requirements may apply. Prospective purchasers should obtain advice from a suitably qualified architect or planning consultant before making an offer. The adjoining parcel of approximately 1.80 acres is being retained by the vendor and does not form part of this sale. Location and Amenities The property is situated at Derryconnery in the highly scenic Glengarriff area of West Cork. Glengarriff offers shops, cafés, restaurants, hotels, schools, sporting facilities, marine amenities and access to the renowned Glengarriff Nature Reserve and Garnish Island. The larger town of Bantry is also within convenient reach and provides supermarkets, schools, healthcare facilities, professional services and a wider range of everyday amenities. The location combines peaceful countryside surroundings with convenient access to Glengarriff, Bantry, the Beara Peninsula and the wider West Cork region. OFFERS AND PURCHASER SELECTION All offers will be considered on their overall merits. The vendor reserves the right to select the preferred purchaser and is not obliged to accept the highest or any offer. As the property is being offered subject to planning permission, prospective purchasers may be requested to provide evidence of funds and preliminary written advice from a suitably qualified architect or planning consultant indicating that they appear capable of satisfying the relevant rural housing and planning requirements. No pre-planning request or formal planning application may be submitted in respect of the property without the vendor’s prior written consent. Any proposed planning application must also comply with the terms agreed through the vendor’s solicitor. No assurance or warranty is given that planning permission will be granted. Maps and further particulars are available from Irish Rural Homes. ________________________________________ CONTACT IRISH RURAL HOMES For further information or to arrange a viewing, please contact Sean Gifford at Irish Rural Homes.
