2 Sandymount, Cobh, Co. Cork, P24 PW96

Built c. 1850 and designated as a protected structure, this exceptional four-storey property is presented in excellent condition throughout. One of only five distinctive gable-fronted homes overlooking Sandymount, the house has been extensively and beautifully renovated while carefully preserving many original period details, including the restored original staircase and banisters, giving the home a rare balance of historic character and modern comfort.

The property offers four spacious bedrooms and ample living space across four bright floors. Natural light pours throughout the house, highlighting the warm wood flooring, high ceilings, and elegant proportions.

The home benefits from natural gas central heating and double glazing throughout.

A striking double-door entrance creates an immediate sense of arrival and adds to the home’s distinctive architectural presence, while a large arch moulding accentuates the entrance to the upper floors, adding further period character.

The newly renovated kitchen is both stylish and functional with updated appliances and a newly installed boiler, making the home fully equipped for contemporary living. The property also includes a new washer and plumbed-in dryer. Ideally situated, the property enjoys easy access to Top of the Hill, the Cobh Connect bus line, schools, shops, and local amenities.

The home also benefits from dual access, including a pedestrian entrance from Lower Midleton Street, where two double bedrooms and a shower room create an ideal layout for guests, independent accommodation, or potential use under Ireland’s Rent-a-Room Relief Scheme.
