Description

This superb 1.6-acre level site, nestled between Glanmire and Watergrasshill (both approximately 9km away), presents a rare opportunity to develop in a peaceful rural setting with excellent connectivity. The site benefits from existing foundations and a partially constructed property, offering the new owner a valuable head start and the potential for a smoother and more efficient planning process. The groundwork already in place may significantly reduce build costs and eliminate many of the uncertainties associated with starting from scratch. The property includes a structure in disrepair, which could be refurbished, replaced, or redeveloped entirely—subject to planning. It enjoys a pleasant countryside outlook, clear boundaries, and is positioned just minutes from the M8 motorway, making Cork City easily accessible for commuters. With its southwest-facing orientation and strong residential profile, the site is ideal for those seeking tranquillity without sacrificing convenience. Local Area & Amenities Watergrasshill (approx. 9-10km): A welcoming village community with a primary school, local shops, pub, and regular bus service to Cork City. Glanmire (approx. 9km): A well-serviced suburb offering secondary schools, supermarkets, cafes, and easy M8 access to the city and beyond. Why This Site Stands Out Existing substructure significantly eases the planning and building process. Clear site boundaries and attractive countryside setting. Quiet rural atmosphere, yet within a short drive to key commuter routes. Excellent development potential, especially given the site's history of construction—though any future development will be subject to local rural housing policies. This is an ideal option for those looking to create a bespoke home or invest in a scenic, well-positioned parcel of land with strong long-term value.
