Caher, Kilcrohane, P75Y159

Detached spacious 1 bedroom property with separate guest cottage and art studio situated on 0.80 acres of woodland with sea view. The property has great potential but is in need of modernisation, repair, renovation and landscaping.  Option to purchase additional land.  

The property has been vacant for a couple of years and is eligible for the Irish government's vacant property grant of €50,000, and more than likely also eligible for the additional derelict property top up of €20,000, (so a total of €70,000 in grant funding).  In order for a purchaser to avail of the €70,000 grant funding they must live in the property as their principal residence for a minimum of 7 years or rent it out on a long term lease basis through the RTB (Residential Tenancy Board).   LOCATION:  The property is located approximately 2.5 miles beyond Kilcrohane village on the Sheep’s Head Peninsula in West Cork.  Bantry is the closest town and Cork city and airport are a 2 hour drive
