House buy in Skibbereen Cork
Bawnlahan is a detached coastal residence enjoying an enviable position overlooking Tragumna bay. Tragumna, meaning 'strand of the oak trunk', is a small hamlet and beach, with the tiny ‘Drishane Island' which is very adjacent to the shore. Tragumna beach has a blue flag status. This status relates to maintaining bathing water quality, environmental education, safety and beach management. This property is in an elevated position and approached via a private drive which creates a wonderful sense of seclusion and privacy. The grounds (circa 1 acre) are superbly landscaped and mature with a wide variety of specimen trees and shrubs. There is a most wonderful sun terrace to the front of the property where there is a large outdoor jacuzzi and another seating area to the rear. On first approach, the main residence is deceptive in size, extending to approx. 238 sq m (2,500 sq ft). The well-appointed accommodation consists of open plan kitchen/family room, living & dining room, conservatory, 3 en-suite bedrooms, study, utility & guest WC. The flow of the accommodation makes it very suitable to modern family living. There is also an attached large store. Built in the mid 1990's to an exceptionally high standard, there are many notable features throughout such as a central vacuum system, Amtico® floor in conservatory, double height ceiling in family room, Corian® worktops in the kitchen & master en-suite. The integral feature of this property is its proximity to the coastline and the spectacular vista that can be enjoyed from all the principal rooms which are positioned to maximise enjoyment of the coastal aspect.
