About this property

Description

Orchard House presents a unique opportunity to acquire a detached four-bedroom residence with a separate two-bedroom guest apartment. Set on approximately one acre in a prime coastal location in the heart of Schull, its scenic gardens and stunning sea views set this property apart. Close to the pier and the vibrant centre of Schull, the property is situated on a distinct elevated site with breathtaking sea views. With its generous size and superior location, it holds significant potential for further development, making it an attractive prospect for both private and commercial buyers. The main residence, spanning approximately 174 sq m (1,900 sq ft), features a well-proportioned layout, designed to maximize the spectacular harbour views. The ground floor comprises a kitchen/breakfast room, spacious sitting/dining room, sunroom, two bedrooms (one en-suite), and a family shower room. Upstairs, there are two additional bedrooms with an adjoining shower room. The guest apartment, measuring approximately 66 sq m (710 sq ft), includes an open plan sitting/dining room, kitchen, two bedrooms (one en-suite), and a separate shower room. The sitting room opens onto a south facing sun terrace. While the main house would benefit from modernisation, the guest apartment is in good condition, offering immediate use for family, guests, or rental opportunities. The garden is a standout feature of this property, comprising just under one acre of landscaped lawns gently sloping towards the sea. It is further enhanced by mature trees and flowering plants that provide shelter and a sense of privacy. Schull is renowned for its sailing and maritime heritage, attracting many enthusiasts to its safe harbour and its world-class sailing school. This property will certainly appeal to boat owners, being just a short stroll from the harbour pier. It is also well positioned beside the leisure centre and swimming pool located at the Schull Harbour Hotel. Schull is one of the finest coastal villages along the Wild Atlantic Way. It is well known for its excellent schools, charming boutiques and diverse range of bars, restaurants and cafés. Schull enjoys a rich cultural scene featuring art galleries and local drama groups that ensure year-round vibrancy. Schull has gained much recognition in recent years for hosting the annual Fastnet Film Festival which attracts many well- known celebrities to the area.
