4 The Clipper, Ávila, Convent Garden, Kinsale, Co. Cork, P17F258

Convent Gardens is a high-end development of houses and apartments perched overlooking Kinsale town and harbour and within walking distance of all Kinsale has to offer. The Cumnor development includes detached and terraced houses within the gardens and grounds of the former convent, and Avila is the re-imagined conversion of the historical convent building into luxury residences. The sale of 4 The Clipper represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the penthouse apartments in the luxury Avila development and was originally the show house apartment, thus was fitted to an exceptional standard and was enhanced by its current owners. The property has a floor area of 130 sq m (1401 sq ft), is on one level and positioned on the second floor. It shares the elevator and entrance hall with just one other apartment.The property benefits from two allocated parking spaces within a covered canopy car park. Granite walkways lead from here through beautifully landscaped gardens, featuring lawned areas bordered by planting and discreet lighting, to the entrance hall shared with No. 3 The Clipper. The layout of the apartment makes for comfortable living with extra high ceilings, sash windows and architectural detailing to each room as a respectful nod to the past combined with the high standard finishes such as the Italian designed sleek look kitchen and utility areas, Gliss Master wardrobes custom designed for Molteni&C, and top quality Spanish and Italian bathroom sanitary ware combined with Italian tiling completes the luxury detail. 4 The Clipper has a very large, decked balcony with glass balustrade, extending the width of the property and has a southerly aspect overlooking the sanctuary of the courtyard gardens. The balcony is sheltered and in full sunshine all day and is accessed via double doors from the kitchen / dining area. The livingroom is to the front of the building with two windows overlooking Kinsale town. The utility room with very useful storage and guest wc is cleverly located within a central area of the property. The primary bedroom with wardrobes and shower-room en-suite is positioned to the front of the property and bedroom two overlooks the gardens at the rear. The heat pump heating system and ventilation results in an A2 BER rating resulting in low running costs. Located just minutes' walk from the centre of Kinsale town and all it has to offer, 4 The Clipper at Avila will make an ideal full-time residence or bolt-hole weekend retreat in a historic setting.
