Carrigacunna Castle, in County Cork, is currently on sale for the modest sum of €2.7 million ($2.9 million)! The entire estate comprises a 16th-century tower castle and a Georgian manor house.

Carrigacunna Castle: a jewel lost in the Irish countryside

A fully renovated historical treasure

Ireland has always been deeply attached to its history. The proof is in the efforts made to preserve its heritage!

Carrigacunna Castle is a fine example of this. Magnificent and particularly well-preserved, it will make future buyers dream by offering a historic setting with totally preserved charm.

The building is a perfect example of a medieval tower house. Dating from 1500, it is in itself a piece of Irish history. Imposing, built of ashlar, it faces the Irish countryside as well as a superb manor house dating from 1750, restored and extended in 1826 and 2003.

A clever blend of old and new, the manor house has retained all its historic features: decorative plasterwork, wood panelling, period furniture, etc. The building stretches over 705m², with 4 reception rooms, three impressive bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and a flat.

Just 30 minutes from Cork city, the castle could well appeal to wealthy buyers looking to enjoy the Irish way of life.
