Description
BEAUTIFUL SIX BEDROOM PERIOD HOME WITH HARBOUR VIEWS Savills are delighted to present Marmullane House, an exceptional six bedroom detached period residence of immense character and architectural significance, standing proudly on c.1.9 acres of beautifully private walled grounds in the heart of Passage West, Co. Cork. Positioned on the southern edge of Cork city, the property enjoys exceptional convenience to a wide range of amenities while offering complete privacy and stunning harbour views. Originally constructed in the 1850s for Henry Brown of the renowned Passage West shipbuilding family, the house is understood to be the work of celebrated architects Deane & Woodward, and specifically Benjamin Woodward, whose distinguished portfolio includes the original Queen's College buildings at UCC, Trinity College Museum Building and the world-famous Natural History Museum at Oxford. Designed in the elegant Greek Revival style, Marmullane House is a striking and commanding home of rare heritage. Approached through automated gates, a long tree lined driveway creates an immediate sense of arrival, leading through mature gardens and lawns towards the impressive façade of the house. The grounds are a particular feature, with colourful gardens, mature trees and shrubs creating a wonderful atmosphere of charm and seclusion. The property has been lovingly maintained and carefully upgraded by its current owners, preserving its period integrity while ensuring comfort for modern family living. Significant works include reroofing in 1991 together with plumbing and rewiring completed in 1995. Accommodation extends to generously proportioned and light-filled rooms throughout. A bright entrance porch opens into a magnificent reception hall, a true focal point of the home, complete with exquisite corniced ceilings, detailed panelling and a wonderful sense of grandeur. The elegant sitting room features solid oak flooring, a marble fireplace and large bay windows framing delightful garden views. Adjacent is the impressive dining/living room, another beautifully proportioned space with ornate ceilings and attractive bay window. The kitchen is both welcoming and functional, fitted with an extensive range of units and appliances together with a warm and characterful AGA at its centre. To the rear of the house, the contemporary TV room opens directly onto a sunny patio and southern lawn, ideal for entertaining or relaxed family living. A separate toy room offers excellent flexibility as a playroom or home office. Further accommodation at ground floor level includes a guest shower room and WC, utility room and a large office filled with natural light. A wide and elegant staircase rises to a grand landing at first floor level where four substantial bedrooms enjoy beautiful garden and harbour views, two with ensuite bathrooms. A separate staircase continues to the attic level where two additional bedrooms provide further accommodation. Further features include broadband connectivity, CCTV and original window shutters throughout. Located within a quiet and highly regarded residential setting, Marmullane House is within 500 metres of a bus stop and just 14km from Cork city centre.
