Savills are delighted to present an exceptional and highly unique residential site of approximately 0.7 acres, set within a mature, elevated woodland setting in the heart of Crosshaven, Co. Cork. This outstanding parcel of land offers a rare opportunity to create a truly special home in one of Cork Harbour’s most desirable coastal locations. Positioned to maximise its natural elevation, the site enjoys breath-taking panoramic views over the Owenabue River, Royal Cork Yacht Club, and out towards Camden, Curabinny and the lower harbour. Rich in character and natural beauty, the site is framed by mature oak, beech and larch trees, creating a sheltered, peaceful environment alive with wildlife including birds and red squirrels.
