DESCRIPTION: 

BARRY AUCTIONEERS & VALUERS are delighted to bring to market this spectacular 5-
bedroom mid-terrace period house. Built in the late 19th century, this Victorian townhouse features generous, bright, and airy living accommodation laid out over three floors with stunning city views.

Gortaclohane extends to c.180 sq. m, comprising 2 separate, well-proportioned reception rooms, a kitchen and WC on the ground floor. The hallway exudes a classic elegance, featuring a high ceiling with ornate Victorian arches and corbels. There are 2 double bedrooms and the main bathroom on the first floor and 3 double bedrooms on the second floor.

The property has an enclosed front garden, bordered by old redbrick walls and accessed through beautiful original cast iron gates. The rear garden is tremendous (c.100 ft long), and many of the neighbouring homes have capitalised on this space, building kitchen extensions, rear garages, and garden rooms adding a modern twist to the quintessential Victorian design.

There is on-street parking for residents as well as vehicle access via a private, gated back
laneway.

Situated off Military Hill in Saint Luke’s, Bellevue Park is one of the finest examples of Victorian architecture in Cork. This attractive terrace is adorned with simple but effective detailing. The red and yellow brick combined with the render provides these homes with a picturesque façade. This quiet cul de sac showcases privately owned elegant homes and offers panoramic south-facing views over Cork’s cityscape.

While the house requires some decorative upgrades and insulation, this is a great opportunity to combine old world architecture with modern design upgrades.

Saint Luke’s offers a wide range of amenities on the doorstep, including some great schools,
local artisan shops and legendary pubs, and Cork city centre is just a short walk away (c.1km).

It is rare to see these fine period properties come to the open market and this will make a wonderful family home in a prime residential area. Viewing is highly recommended.
